lyrics

Maria, Maria, Maria. You look so fine to me. Your skin is brown like caramell. All sprawled out in the moonlight. In lilac or lavender twilight would you still be clothed in fog? She used to kneel and beg to hold me like a marionette. But you're not a mother. You're a dancer. With no strings attached. Maria, Maria, Maria. She's just a child who asks me to make her a woman, but I am not the one who pays for her clothes and her schooling, and cares for her. And will she take care of me when she herself is strong? Oh! I am with child. My skin has turned pale. So I am begging you. Please, Joe. I will honor your request and never travel to Mexico and see silver objects there under a pale moon. But from that sterile palette will I know how to love her? I am in love with learning the knowledge that I am safe. So I will teach you something called Inmovil. Look up there in the sky, my love. A stationery bird so still. So still I need to describe you with pictures Inmovil. Mira al cielo mi amor. Un ave inmovil. Mira al cielo mi amor. Un ave inmovil. Maria, Maria, Maria. Ah, she's just a child who asks me to make her a woman, but I am not the one who payed for her clothes and her schooling, and cares for her. And will she take care of me when she herself is strong? I see you in your window sometimes, watching the swirling clouds. I am on a lazy river where it never rains. But I think I may write you sometimes via internet. And no matter what the hackers find, they can't change what I have said.
