Look out upon the Bay of Marseilles, think of me,
Oh, I don't blame you for moving on.
I'm sure it burned when you learned that I was dead and gone,
But girl, it hurt when I heard that you moved on.
Oh, Mercedes,
Walking through your garden,
Mercedes, playing your guitar,
Before your portrait on his wall--
Your painted smile says it all,
Oh, is this what we've become?
A silver bullet in his gun,
Oh, my love what have I done?
Oh Mercedes,
Will you become a nun?
Mercedes,
Living only for the sun,
Well I ain't the archangel I thought I was,
Oh, will I be forgiven?
I probably should have stayed away,
Oh, or drowned myself in the bay.
