letra de maria - phil pritchett

[verse 1]
i’m the next patriot, caught a drift
i caught a good glimpse of her smile and her midriff
that got me a body full of salt
and now i got me a mind full of sangria
i didn’t go there looking for trouble
i singled her out earlier but now i’m seeing double
and the bartender told me
that both of their names were maria
the castanets in her hands
cl!ckity-clack my own understanding
of what it means to have some rhythm in your soul
yeah, with a stomp and a shuffle from her feet
she made me lose a little bit of the pace in my heartbеat
it’s never been more fun to losе control

[verse 2]
her swirling skirt shows a little bit of thigh
the glass in my hand won’t stop running dry
and all those flamingo guitars
they keep rattlin’ all of those bones in my ear
i guess it’s just too late
she can already see that i’m from the states
i guess we all have a tendency
to get a little loud when we come over here
i’m sorry about the insult
but please, i don’t need another bar bouncer catapult
i can find my own way to the door tonight
yeah, and i’m finding it a little hard to walk
and this wine makes me yell every time i try to talk
look what your dancer did to me tonight
[chorus]
maria, don’t go
what are you doing after the show?
these are the words i’ll never get to say
maria, i know
that i could be someone you’d like to know
but i’m in no condition to make any first impressions today
(hi maria, stay)

[verse 3]
later that night in my hotel bed
the rhythm of the stomps and the claps still ringing in my head
i began more than a little bit to
regret some of my excess
i’ll have to find another way
the very next time i’m gonna try to make a play
for a beautiful spanish dancer
and hope to have any kind of success
was it the wine or the redness of the lips
that made me lose all of the feelings in my fingertips?
i guess i never will find out
yeah, was it the wind of the swish from her skirt
that blew my mind and swept me up like a featherweight flirt?
i guess i never will find out

[chorus]
maria, don’t go
what are you doing after the show?
these are the words i’ll never get to say
maria, i know
that i could be someone you’d like to know
but i’m in no condition to make any first impressions today
(hi maria, stay)
[bridge]
hi maria, stay
hi maria, stay

[verse 4]
the next morning came with a ring from the phone
i was already late for the bus to barcelona
i jumped out of bed and ran down my hall with my suitcase in my hand
i took the stairs, it was just one flight
and made my way towards the door in the too bright sunlight
and how i was still able to move
i don’t think i’ll ever understand
just as i stepped outside
something inside caught my eye, yeah
it was the beautiful dancer from the night before
yeah, she was just sittin’ in a hotel lobby chair
just reading magazines and playing with a strand of her hair
i wanted to speak but i went out the door

[chorus]
maria, don’t go
what are you doing after the show?
these are the words i’ll never get to say
maria, i know
that i could be someone you’d like to know
but i’m in no condition to make any first impressions today
[outro]
hey, oh (hey, maria, stay)
hey, oh (hey, impression today)
maria, hey (hey, after the show)
don’t you go (hey, i’d like to know)
