There´s a soft rain tapping on your window There´s a cool breeze blowing off the bay And a warm flame dancing with our shadows To music playing far away
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
But I can´t speak for you, Maria I only know the way I feel 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
But I can´t speak for you, Maria I only know the way I feel When I sleep with you, Maria There´s nothing left for dreams to steal
When the sunlight brings the morning I can´t tell you what I´ll do But I´ve a mind to take you with me And I´ve a heart to stay with you
But I can´t speak for you, Maria I only know the way I feel When I sleep with you, Maria There´s nothing left for dreams to steal
When I sleep with you, Maria There´s nothing left for dreams to steal
