Maria

Justin Townes Earle

Used to be I was the object of affection
In your eyes alone
But now it seems your heart has found a new direction
And you're leavin' me out in the cold

If you're gonna break my heart go on and break it
No, I don't need you no more
I tried so hard and now my will is breakin'
Baby, even more
I still love you

I remember when it used to make me happy
Just to look into your eyes
But lately every time I try, you're lookin' past me
And I don't know why

Believe me baby, you don't even gotta tell me
But I already know
And you don't gotta say goodbye just walk on past me
I don't want to hurt no more
Not for you Maria

Any way I turn I know could find a better way to lose
'Cause I just won't get along with you
Even though I love you too
Ah Maria

I guess mama wasn't lyin' about the dangers
That could hide inside ones heart
We're better off if we just all remain strangers
Stumblin' around in the dark
