Written and recorded as part of the 2007 FAWM challenge

Marilyn, I watched you walk away
But my mouth was dry as clay
And now I'm broken like a vase
Marilyn, I'm in pieces on the floor
You've gotta come back through that door
So I'll be saved

I found out what you wrote
On that refrigerator note
Marilyn, what Shelly told you isn't true
She's poisoned every word she says to you

Marilyn it's true I was in her room
And you did smell her perfume on that shirt I wore
But Marilyn it never went that far
I mean, I held her in my arms but nothing more

Why did you have to go away
Now I cry you'll come back to stay
Marilyn why did you have to go away
You know it's true I'll never last another day without you

I'll try roses, gifts and chocolates too
We've gotta do it eye-to-eye so I can prove my love to you

Marilyn, I watched you walk away
But my mouth was dry as clay
And now I'm broken like a vase
Marilyn, I'm in pieces on the floor
You've gotta come back through that door
So I'll be saved

Why'd you believe what Shelly said?
She's the devil and you know she can't be trusted

Marilyn you know it's true I won't last another day without you
Marilyn you know it's true I won't last another day without you
