Maria

歌詞

Maria, honey They say these colors don't run But they bleed in your face, like a bully spitting up a bad taste After being knocked down a few pegs You sigh as hard as a rock It cuts your laugh lines absurd I'm smiling with Irish eyes bloodshot Christmas colored, you don't know what you've got I'm falling apart at the seams I'm mending this fifth of old age, just minding these six strings It don't do me a damn that you got a pretty face, baby It don't seem to you a damned thing You got soothsayer nay-saying, you got soothsayer nay-saying Red herrings never spoke to us We don't believe in fate or metaphor They got healing lips, but their tongues are poison tipped Maria, the moment is right To make them take a step back, take a step back Maria on your quietest night We'll make them rue the day they met you, Maria I'm whistling with conviction Like a young man in love Like a young man with his pride on sale Baby, join the club Well you're just darling With your exclaimed travesties It's a long road, it's a long road So keep your chin up You got soothsayer nay-saying, you got soothsayer nay-saying Red herrings never spoke to us We don't believe in fate or metaphor They got healing lips, but their tongues are poison tipped Maria, the moment is right To make them take a step back, take a step back Maria on your quietest night We'll make them rue the day they met you, Maria I once held a stone also Staring at you naked and daring us to throw Maria, you can see the good in everything Now I know stones and bones fall from where they came from Maria, the moment is right To make them take a step back, take a step back Maria on your quietest night We'll make them rue the day they met you, Maria
