Ode to Mari
by George Assaf
*Although this is not an ode, and it was never intended for any Mari... *
*The original form was an ode and it was for some girl whom I forgot the*
*name (maybe it s the effect of Mari :)). After the form was changed to *
*the current one, the word Ode was kept in the title and that girl s *
*name was substituted with Mari (no not Mary, not Marie but Mari). *
Once again last night,
Again I couldn t sleep,
I felt that think so deep,
Yes, I was thinking about you.
And even in the nights
When I manage to sleep,
I feel that think so deep
And all I dream is about you.
chorus
Oh! Mari! Oh! Mari!
I ll make the whole world see
That I want you to be
My little Mari.
When I look into your eyes,
I feel that I am lost,
My heart beats at its most
I think I m going mad about you.
And when touch your hand,
Smell your perfume in the air,
I desire to caress your hair
And spend my nights beside you.
chorus
Every time you swing and dance,
I can t turn my eye away,
I m on my knees and I pray,
The angels dance beside you.
Every time you are with me,
It s hardly I can breathe,
I wish that the time freezes
So i Spend my life beside you.
chorus
Oh! Mari! Oh! Mari!
I know deep in me,
That you too want to be,
My holy sweet Mari.
