Marbles Meaning

[[Verse 1: Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland & Both]
I’ve held your hand since 1979
You were in a band (Still am) yeah but back then you had hair and your smile was so sublime
And I chipped my teeth on every joke you cracked
You used to buy me scotch (Still do) yeah but now too much is never enough
To take me back to that dance hall where you got thrown out ’cause they thought you were drunk (I wasn’t)
You couldn’t lie then and you sure as hell can’t lie to me now

[Pre-Chorus: Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland & Both]
You stole the best years of my life
I’ll give them back
You got fat
And you’re the thigh-high hemline I just can’t stop staring at

[Chorus: Both & Madeleine Hyland]
‘Cause I will wait (I will wait) and hope
Your eyes aren’t rivers there to weep
But a place for crows to rest their feet
And I will wait (I will wait) and hope
And rest my head at night content
Knowing where my marbles went

[Verse 2: Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland & Both]
The flat we rented was a palace for my queen
If by palace you mean that asbestos and beans from a tin, and the gin that we brewed in the bathtub
She sang, “Do you think I’m sexy?” and oh god I really did
You’d swoon, (You’d sigh), working shifts till we cried
Oh, if one more guy calls me darling then I
Swear to you and to God I will murder them all
All the bastards applaud when I show that I’m flawed
You’re not flawed darling, you’re just a little under-rehearsed
And I’d get in
And for some reason you’ve painted the kitchen lime green
And I’d sink to the floor, what’s the point anymore
And you, you’d reply with a glint in your eye (And you, you’d reply with a drink in your hand)
Saying “I don’t know, but I’m here, (I’m all yours), dear heart don’t cry”(Saying “I don’t know, but I’m here, ‘oh dear god’, dear heart don’t cry)
, [Chorus: Both & Madeleine Hyland]
‘Cause I will wait (I will wait) and hope
Your eyes aren’t rivers there to weep
But a place for crows to rest their feet
And I will wait (I will wait) and hope
And rest my head at night content
Knowing where my marbles went

[Bridge: Joey Batey & Madeleine Hyland]
I’ve loved you, for a hundred years
Certainly fucking feels like it
The minute I met you, the colours of my life began to pour
I’m scared of the dark
And now, even though you’re mad and these memories won’t stay
That’s okay
‘Cause then I get to meet you for the first time every single day

[Chorus: Both & Madeleine Hyland]
I will wait and hope
Your eyes aren’t rivers there to weep
But a place for crows to rest their feet
And I will wait and hope
And rest my head at night content
Knowing where my marbles
, [Outro: Both]
I will wait
And I will wait
I will
And I will wait
And hope
And I will wait
I will wait and
And I will wait
And I will wait
And hope]
