Sam Roberts - Oh Maria lyrics

rate me

You could never compromise

I could never satisfy you at all

Always thought you had gentle eyes

Then you've had me institutionalized (twice before)

Before I was a young man

Now look at me, I'm just younger than old

The years don't seem to touch you

It makes me wonder what you sold

Oh my Maria

I'll never change you, I know

I know

I need to see you

That never changes, oh no

You lived on the 7th floor

It was far from heaven but it meant more

You said things that were hard to ignore

My conversation makes you bored

You always hated wedding bells

You'd go out riding with the Hell's and say

Life is for the taking

Life is for the taking

Oh my Maria

I'll never change you, I know

I know

I need to see you

That never changes, oh no

So how's it going to be, Maria?

Will it be you and me?

Or will it be

Five more years of counting my tears

Five more years of living in fear

I beg for my supper at night

If this is love then it don't feel right

[ Sam Roberts Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]

And my heart's burning out of control

They gave her five, but she's out on parole

Hey hey hey

This girl is leading me astray

Saw a photograph of you today

Your eyes look tired, but you haven't aged

And now I see that you made the front page

Married for the money and you blew him away

Oh Maria, when you were doing time

You only had five words on your mind

"Life is for the taking

Life is for the taking"

Oh my Maria

I'll never change you, I know

I know

I need to see you

That never changes, oh no

Oh my Maria

I'll never change you, I know

I know

I need to see you

That never changes, oh no

I beg for my supper at night

If this is love then it don't feel right

And my heart's burning out of control

They gave her five, but she's out on parole

Hey hey hey

This girl is leading me astray

Listen what I say

This girl is leading me astray<br />
