Andy Havens – Marie Comforts Me Lyrics

I feel so good.  I feel so fine
I knew I would almost every time
Don't know what's right
Don't know what's wrong
That's one for you and two for me
Oh, I can't sleep
Take a pill!  Control my breathing, I know the drill
But I see in my mind's eye.  I've learned to change the course of time

Oh, I just can't ignore
My judgement, it seemed so poor

But now I go see Marie
She knows how to comfort me
She makes me feel complete
And now I have no conceit
So I go see Marie
She knows how to comfort me

I could be black
I could be white
I wonder about it almost every night
I feel a bad fever, it's coming on
Should I starve or should I play along
Oh, I'm lost!  My plans have failed
The fire inside burns to no avail
Listen good, I'll tell you when
But I'm never coming back here again

I wanted so much for her to stay
She pulled the knife out and ran away

So now I go see Marie
She knows how to comforts me
She makes me feel complete
And now I have no conceit
So I go see Marie
She knows how to comfort me
