[Verse 1]
There's a soft rain tapping on your window
There's a cool breeze blowing off the bay
And a warm flame dancing with our shadows
To music playing far away
[Verse 2]
I never meant to stay an hour
I thought that I was passing through
Another town along the highway
I never meant to fall for you
[Chorus]
But I can't speak for you, Maria
I only know the way I feel
When I sleep with you, Maria
There's nothing left for dreams to steal
[Verse 3]
On a Bible by the mirror
The only treasures that we hold
The only secrets that we're keeping
A watch, a chain, a cross of gold
[Chorus]
But I can't speak for you, Maria
I only know the way I feel
When I sleep with you, Maria
There's nothing left for dreams to steal
[Verse 4]
When the sunlight brings the morning
I can't tell you what I'll do
But I've a mind to take you with me
And I've a heart to stay with you
[Chorus]
But I can't speak for you, Maria
I only know the way I feel
When I sleep with you, Maria
There's nothing left for dreams to steal
[Outro]
When I sleep with you, Maria
There's nothing left for dreams to steal
