Steve Earle - Maria 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
You’re leavin’ me out in the cold

So if you’re gonna break my heart
Go on and break it
No I don’t don’t need you no more
Well I tried so hard and
Now my will is breakin’
Baby even more I still love you

I remember when you used to make me happy
Just to look into your eyes
But now every time I try
You’re lookin’ past me and I don’t know why
So baby you don’t evеn gotta tell
Me no I already know
So don’t еven say goodbye just
Walk on past me i don’t want to hurt no more
Not for you Maria
Any way I turn I could find
A better way to lose ah Maria

I guess mama wasn’t lyin’ about the dangers
There could be inside ones heart
We’re better off if we all remain strangers
Stumblin’ thru the dark
