Marcie Lyrics - Song To A Seagull - Joni Mitchell

Marcie in a coat of flowers 

Steps inside a candy store 

Reds are sweet and greens are sour 

Still no letter at her door 

So she'll wash her flower curtains 

Hang them in the wind to dry 

Dust her tables with his shirt and 

Wave another day goodbye 

Marcie's faucet needs a plumber 

Marcie's sorrow needs a man 

Red is autumn green is summer 

Greens are turning and the sand 

All along the ocean beaches 

Stares up empty at the sky 

Marcie buys a bag of peaches 

Stops a postman passing by 

And summer goes 

Falls to the sidewalk like string and brown paper 

Winter blows 

Up from the river there's no one to take her 

To the sea

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

Marcie dresses warm its snowing 

Takes a yellow cab uptown 

Red is stop and green's for going 

Sees a show and rides back down 

Down along the Hudson River 

Past the shipyards in the cold 

Still no letter's been delivered 

Still the winter days unfold 

Like magazines 

Fading in dusty grey attics and cellars 

Make a dream 

Dream back to summer and hear how 

he tells her 

Wait for me 

Photos 

Marcie leaves and doesn't tell us 

Where or why she moved away 

Red is angry green is jealous 

That was all she had to say 

Someone thought they saw her Sunday 

Window shopping in the rain 

Someone heard she bought a one-way ticket 

And went west again
