Maria

Maria works for a living
though she often has nothing to show for it
Maria counts on her giving
to take her places she's always wanted to be

So blow Maria, blow light across the prairie
and float Maria, float down the dark tributaries
The girl who made you laugh out loud
the girl who made you cry deep down
...she will come without a sound
Hear the rustle of the one that she's been stirring

Marie laughs at your body, the one you take so seriously
she will wrap her hands around your heart
and hold it tight though you will still feel free

Maria may take you down, leaves you scattered in pieces
or lifts you up through the clouds
where you can soar among the winged creatures
...she is gone without a sound
Hear the rustle of the one that she's been stirring

Ride back
