'Oh Marita'

I wrote this song for Marita before we were married - and the words are truer now then they were over 26 years ago. I really wanted to record it professionally with every instrument I hear in my head - but this one take, one guitar will have to do.
Happy 26th Anniversary dearest - our best days are yet before us.

"Who is this Spanish Queen?
Of royal lineage I'm sure.
And why has she chosen me?
Oh Marita

My love, my sister, my friend
A woman who sees like I do.
All that I have will be spent,
Forever my love upon you.

Some things are too great to be seen!
Like the path of a bird in the sky
Or the trail of a ship on the sea
And the way that I feel when I . . .

Just hear the sound of her voice
Or the speaking out of her name
I'm changed from a man to a moth,
Drawn to the flame."

"Oh Marita" by Victor Styrsky 1988
