PATTI SMITH lyrics : "Maria"
Where you were no one
Yet you were the girl, the only one
At the edge of the world
In the desert heat
One shivering start, sweet, indiscreet
I knew you
When we were young
I knew you
Now you're gone
In a little narcissus pool, drowned by a spell
We saw ourselves, raw, exciteable
I knew you
When we were young
I knew you
Now you're gone
We didn't know the precariousness of our young powers
All the emptiness
Wild, wild hair, such sad eyes
White shirt, black tie, you were mine
You grabbed the ring of the carousel
Time going from heaven to hell
I knew you
