"Marietta" lyrics

"Marietta"

When you moved to Marietta
I couldn't watch you go
I lay awake and listened
To the car drive down the road
And I couldn't help but feel
That I'd done nothing wrong
Did I miss some kind of message?
Did you feel alone too long?
Were we drifting through the darkness
As sometimes lovers do?
Did you wonder where your dreams went, babe?
Did you find them somewhere out there in the blue?

Maybe, peace will come in time
Maybe, peace will come in time
Maybe, somewhere down the line
Peace will come in time

When you left for Marietta
The night was black and blue
You said we both needed a little change now
But I emptied my pockets for you
There's a certain kind of sadness
When a house is not a home
Did you find what you were looking for?
Is it better now you're gone?

Maybe, peace will come in time
Maybe, peace will come in time
Maybe, somewhere down the line
You will find
Peace will come in time

When you moved to Marietta
I couldn't watch you go
I lay awake and listened
To the car drive down the road
