Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- Love, here is my heart
And though we have to part
My long journey through
I’ll think of no one else but you
Chorus:
Marianne, will you remember me
All the time while I’m away?
My Marianne, I hope you’ll keep for me
Each caress of yesterday
Deep in my heart I hold you tenderly
I know that you are true to me, Cherie
And so, while I am gone, I’ll “Carry on”
My darling Marianne, for you
- Love, from yesteryear
I’ll keep each souvenir
And cherish each thought
As a token of the joy you brought
