Martha My Dear Lyrics
[Piano Intro]
[Verse 1]
Martha, my dear
Though I spend my days in conversation
Please, remember me
Martha, my love
Don't forget me
Martha, my dear
[Bridge 1]
Hold your head up, you silly girl
Look what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you
Silly girl
[Bridge 2]
Take a good look around you
Take a good look, you're bound to see
That you and me were meant to be for each other
Silly girl
[Instrumental break]
[Bridge 1]
Hold your hand out, you silly girl
See what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you
Silly girl
[Verse 2]
Martha, my dear
You have always been my inspiration
Please, be good to me
Martha, my love
Don't forget me
Martha, my dear
