《[Quicksilver Daydreams of] Maria》歌词

[00:00:00] [Quicksilver Daydreams of

[00:00:04] Well the diamonds fades quickly when matched to the face of Maria

[00:00:12] All the harps they sound empty when she lifts her lips to the sky

[00:00:22] The brown of her skin makes her hair seem a soft golden rainfall

[00:00:31] That spills from the mountains to the bottomless depths of her eyes

[00:00:41] Well she stands all around me her hands slowly sifting the sunshine

[00:00:50] All the laughter that linger down deep 'neath her smilin' is free

[00:00:59] Well it spins and it twirls like a hummingbird lost in the morning

[00:01:09] And caresses the south wind and silently sails to the sea

[00:01:18] Ah the sculpter stands stricken and the artist he throws away his brushes

[00:01:28] When her image comes dancin' the sun she turns sullen with shame

[00:01:37] And the birds they go silent the wind stops his sad mournful singing

[00:01:46] When the trees of the forest start gently to whisper'in her name

[00:01:56] So as softly she wanders I'll desperately follow her footsteps

[00:02:05] And I'll chase after shadows that offer a trace of her sight

[00:02:14] Ah they promise eternally that she lays hidden within them

[00:02:24] But I find they've decieved me and sadly I bid them goodbye

[00:02:33] So the serpent slide softly away with these moments of laughter

[00:02:42] And the the old washy woman has finish her cleanin' and gone

[00:02:52] But the bamboo hang heavy in the bondage of quicksilver daydreams

[00:03:01] And a lonely child longingly looks for a place to belong
