Maura O’Connell - Stories lyrics

I used to wonder if I could dance
When my friends said to take a chance
Maybe I’d sail across the floor
Into the arms of a new romance
Take the wild in my lovin’ arms
Turn it over with all my charms
Twist around and around and around by you
Say the things that you want me to

But, I would always lose my nerve
As soon as I would reach you there
I felt my feet stuck to the ground
I could not make my move
I could not make my move

Snowflakes that melt in the sun
Beautiful songs that’ll never be sung
These are the stories that
Follow the human race
Spirit's that long to be free
Waiting in you, waiting in me
Waiting in lovers all over the universe
All over the universe

Margherita puts on her face
And dresses up in her Mama’s lace
Takes a walk along Grafton Street
Steps inside of her favorite place
Sees the one that her heart
Knows only too well
Keeps her under a dark and evil spell
But she don’t mind just as long
As she holds in her hand
Her one-way ticket to nowhere land

'Cause when the evening shadows fall
Margherita won’t walk so tall
If she runs out of what she needs
To face another day
To get through one more day

Snowflakes that melt in the sun
Beautiful songs that’ll never be sung
These are the stories that
Follow the human race
Spirit's that long to be free
Waiting in you, waiting in me
Waiting in lovers all over the universe
All over the universe

Snowflakes that melt in the sun
Beautiful songs that’ll never be sung
These are the stories that
Follow the human race
Spirit's that long to be free
Waiting in you, waiting in me
Waiting in lovers all over the universe
All over the universe over the universe
