Stop the moon in the sky So it can't move and you can't say goodbye The stars hung low like the sky was a tree I'd stay here forever if it was up to me Chorus: I don't worry Maria Something in the dark with you makes it OK Oh Maria turn the light on and just say If you don't feel that way Late night let me in And your corduroy pillow made a tattoo on my skin Took me all night drinking and home on your shoulder What I did to feel young only made me feel older
Repeat Chorus Oh Maria come on Why you want to be alone With your big blue eyes and your Scorpio heart I love you in the light, I want to love you in the dark Sent you a dime store postcard that said "I wish I was there" And what you never say hangs between us in the air Cigarettes, coffee, Nabakov tattoo If it was up to me it wouldn't be up to you Repeat chorus
