April Wine Marjorie HQ with Lyrics in Description

Track 10 from their sixth album "Forever for Now" released in 1977 copyright Aquarius Records. It was recorded at Phase One Studios in Toronto and Tempo Studios in Montreal and was their second produced by Myles Goodwyn. His songs incorporated influences from several different musical styles but critical reviews were poor. It sold moderately at first, climbing to a peak of No. 19 on the Canadian chart. Shortly after "You Won't Dance with Me" became an unexpected hit, selling more copies than any of their previous singles. It was written in the style of a 1950's ballad as an homage to Goodwyn's early musical heroes and its popularity greatly increased sales. Six months after its release, the album peaked at No. 5 on the chart and was certified Gold in Canada. Written and produced by Myles Goodwyn. RIP Steve Lang & Myles Goodwyn. Featuring:

It seems like a silly thing I said
Seems like a silly thing I've done
But I was lost and all alone, completely alone
I couldn't take it anymore

(And like a dream you came to me)
(And when no one else could see)
(You helped me understand)
(Took me gently by the hand)

Marjorie (your memory is living, loving everyday)
(But no one's strong when love goes wrong)
(It's over if no one wants to stay)
(And I really feel I have to get away, get away)

And yes, it's sad to be alone
Gettin' drunk and gettin' stoned
Just the whiskey, then the wine till I was losin' my mind
Couldn't take it anymore

(And like a dream you came to me) oh
(And as no one else could see)
(You helped me understand)
(And took me gently by the hand)

(And I can tell that magic spell)
(Is living, loving everyday)
(But no one's strong when love goes wrong)
(It's over if no one wants to stay)
(Now I really feel like I have to get away)
Get away
Get away (get away, get away, get away) ooh-hoo-hoo-ooh-hoo-hoo
(Get away, get away, get away) ooh-ooh-hoo
Get away (get away, get away, get away) ooh
(Get away, get away, get away, get away) ooh-hoo-hoo-ooh-hoo-hoo
(Get away, get away, get away)
(Get away, get away, get away)
(Get away, get away, get away)
