Maria - Lyrics - George Strait

George Harvey Strait is an American country music singer, actor, and music producer known as the "King of Country" and one of the most influential and popular recording artists of all time. He is known for his neotraditionalist country style, cowboy look, and being one of the first and main country artists to bring country music back to its roots and away from the pop country era in the 1980s.

There's a soft rain tappin' on your window There's a cool breeze blowin' off the bay And a warm flame dancin' with our shadows To music playin' far away. I never meant to stay an hour I thought that I was passin' through Another town along the highway I never meant to fall for you. 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 On a Bible by the mirror The only treasures that we hold The only secrets that we're keepin' A watch, a chain, a cross of gold 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 When the sunlight brings the mornin' 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 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 When I sleep with you, Maria There's nothin' left for dreams to steal...
