The Paper Kites
Marietta
[Verse 1]
When you moved to Marietta
I couldn't watch you go
I lay awake and listened
To the car drive down the road

[Verse 2]
And I couldn't help but feel like
I'd done nothing wrong
Did I miss some kind of message?
Did you feel alone too long?

[Verse 3]
Well, it drifts into the darkness
As sometimes lovers do
Do you wonder where your dreams went, babe?
Did you find them somewhere out there in the blue?

[Chorus]
Maybe peace will come in time
Maybe pеace will come in time
Maybе somewhere down the line
Peace will come in time

[Verse 4]
When you left for Marietta
And I was black and blue
You said we both need a little change now
But I emptied my pockets for you
[Verse 5]
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?

[Chorus]
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

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