Lyrics
Oh Maria, you left me here in a way I never knew
What could I do?
By the road, hitching a ride from the city to the shore
And now I know, I’ve been here before
Drawing a line in the sand
Somerset Maugham in my hand
Bottle of rum
And the warm setting sun
Shows what we’ve become
And tells of what I’ve done
Oh my God, here it comes again
The surprises never end, but I pretend
How could I, become the light that shines tonight?
Then would you stay away?
Thinking of all that I said
And how you’d make love when I’m dead
And that’s enough
To make all the world
Come crashing into us
If only just because.
What could I do?
By the road, hitching a ride from the city to the shore
And now I know, I’ve been here before
Drawing a line in the sand
Somerset Maugham in my hand
Bottle of rum
And the warm setting sun
Shows what we’ve become
And tells of what I’ve done
Oh my God, here it comes again
The surprises never end, but I pretend
How could I, become the light that shines tonight?
Then would you stay away?
Thinking of all that I said
And how you’d make love when I’m dead
And that’s enough
To make all the world
Come crashing into us
If only just because.
