(Quicksilver Daydreams Of) Maria [*][Demo Version] Lyrics
Used to be I was the object of affection
In your eyes alone
But now it seems your heart has found a new direction
And you're leavin' me out in the cold
If you're gonna break my heart go on and break it
No, I don't need you no more
I tried so hard and now my will is breakin'
Baby, even more
I still love you
I remember when it used to make me happy
Just to look into your eyes
But lately every time I try, you're lookin' past me
And I don't know why
Believe me baby, you don't even gotta tell me
But I already know
And you don't gotta say goodbye just walk on past me
I don't want to hurt no more
Not for you Maria
Any way I turn I know could find a better way to lose
'Cause I just won't get along with you
Even though I love you too
Ah Maria
I guess mama wasn't lyin' about the dangers
That could hide inside ones heart
We're better off if we just all remain strangers
Stumblin' around in the dark
In your eyes alone
But now it seems your heart has found a new direction
And you're leavin' me out in the cold
No, I don't need you no more
I tried so hard and now my will is breakin'
Baby, even more
I still love you
Just to look into your eyes
But lately every time I try, you're lookin' past me
And I don't know why
But I already know
And you don't gotta say goodbye just walk on past me
I don't want to hurt no more
Not for you Maria
'Cause I just won't get along with you
Even though I love you too
Ah Maria
That could hide inside ones heart
We're better off if we just all remain strangers
Stumblin' around in the dark
