Maria's Beautiful Mess
She fell to the mattress With the grace of an actress Falling like a thief from a roof. She's asking for proof—“Are you staying?” Outside you hear mission bells. Welcome to Maria's beautiful mess, In a cluttered apartment on the West Side. She pulls the blinds while, You watch how her dress falls round her. And the world slows, a clock shows A wrinkle in the flow of time And she steps close, her eyes glow, Lips pop open like a bottle of wine And she'll love like it's thirst Like she's never been hurt, She's dancing just like nobody's watching. Is this love? Is this cursed? It feels like the first time falling Nobody's watching, Nobody's watching, Nobody's watching, watching She puts on some music, She asks you to choose it Letras de cancionesYou sang her back a Gershwin line. Now Ella is singing holy, soulfully, Bringing up better times And beneath the tunes, She's smiling on an unmade bed She says—“What's in the middle that scares you? Does it dare you To take a moment and just slow down?” And the world slows, a clock shows A wrinkle in the flow of time And she steps close, her eyes glow, Lips pop open like a bottle of wine And she'll love like it's thirst Like she's never been hurt, She's dancing just like nobody's watching. Is this love? Is this cursed? It feels like the first time falling Nobody's watching. Pull the curtains all down Let the stars fall around you, She's smiling like the Mona Lisa. You could conquer this town. If your feet touched the ground, But you're falling boy I know, I see you I see you, I see, I see, I see you From Letras Mania
