Gordon Lightfoot Marie Christine Lyrics

1968

Now have you seen the lighthouse
Shining from the rock
Or the ship Marie Christine
And all her gallant lot
Now have you seen the lighthouse
Oh we are close to land
Cried the brave young captain
To his wretched band

Now have you seen the harbor
Cried Marie Christine
Have you seen the jagged rocks
And the waters in between
Now have you seen the lighthouse
Oh save me if you can
For if you do I promise you
I'll never sail again

Now have you seen the lighthouse
Shining from the rock
Cried the brave young captain
To his wretched lot
Now gather all your photographs
And don your coats of blue
If anyone can save us now
Marie Christine 'tis you

When I first saw Marie Christine
And the woman that she was
I signed aboard to man her sails
With honor held her course
I christened her with old champagne
And I drove her to the west
Of all the men who sailed on her
In truth I sailed her best

Now have you seen the lighthouse
Shining from the rock
Or the ship Marie Christine
And all her gallant lot
Now have you seen the lighthouse
Oh we are close to land
Cried the brave young captain
To his wretched band

Come all you would-be sailors
All you would-be sailors, oh
All you would-be sailors

If anyone can save us now
Marie Christine 'tis you

If anyone can save us now
Marie Christine 'tis you
