We've been a long time together
but I must leave you today
I said I love you forever
some day I'll be here to stay.

Goodbye Marie Jeanne
we're waiting for the summer
Then we dance and then we sing
I will give you everything
then we build our house upon the hill.

Goodbye Marie Jeanne
I'll be back in the summer
flowers in your golden hair
feel the magic in the air
then we build our house upon the hill.

I know it ain't easy my darling
the whole wintertime on your own.
But I will be back that's a promise
before that oud baby is born.
