Robert Earl Keen

Maria
There's a salt grain tapping on your window There's a cool breeze blowing off the bay A warm flame dancing with our shadows To music playing far a way I never meant to stay an hour I thought that I was passing through Another town along the highway I never meant to fall for you CHORUS I can't speak for you Maria I only know the way I feel But when I sleep with you Maria There's nothing left for dreams to steal On a Bible by the mirror The only treasures that we hold The only secrets that we're keeping A watch, a chain, a cross of gold REPEAT CHORUS When the sunlight brings the morning I cannot tell you what I'll do SongtexteBut I've a mind to take you with me And I've a heart to stay with you REPEAT CHORUS Repeat last line of chorus Aus Songtexte Mania
