La chanson évoque un homme qui cherche à retrouver une petite fille nommée Marie, qui vit à Memphis. Il demande des informations pour la contacter, soulignant qu'elle est très spéciale pour lui. Leur séparation a été douloureuse, car la mère de Marie ne voyait pas d'un bon œil leur amitié, ce qui a brisé leur bonheur. L’homme se souvient avec nostalgie des moments qu’ils ont partagés, tout en exprimant le chagrin de ne plus pouvoir la voir. C’est une histoire emplie de tendresse et de nostalgie, où l’on ressent le désir profond de reconnecter avec un être cher.
