lyrics

Woman From No Return

I will awake with the bright sun
I will just gaze at the luminance of the dawn
And work away past the dying of the light
And hope I pray to right god tonight

Oh, Maria
How does one ever know the right things to say
Where's the book of the rules and particular page
No more chances today with the woman from no return

I only learn through hindsight
I can't confirm even now if I'm wrong or dumb...or both
Some say I may have blind folded eyes
Why can't I sway or come close to a compromise

Oh, Maria
I reject any claim by the masters of love
Any way it's conveyed, any thought off the cuff
See the flies in my brain as you're walking away

You say the situation's only cash
Some can live without it, others can't
I turn around and one more hope is dashed
There's nothing but forgiveness
I never can change the past

Woman from no return

I will awake with the bright sun
I will just gaze at the luminance of the dawn
Woman from no return

Maria
I suspect any claims by the masters of love
Any way it's conveyed, any thought off the cuff
throws a chill through my spine as you're walking away
