"Maria, It's Time" lyrics

"Maria, It's Time"

I didn't want it, it was plain to see
When we talked out plans making no money
I can no longer go to say it's fine
And I don't want nothing
I want a life

Trying like a jewel just to shine it on
Momma's gonna love it no matter what
Riding on a silver shadow
To my grave

And it seems like we're just turning
Turning just to make it work
And it seems like we're just turning
Turning just to make it work

Well, everybody says the seasons change
And you get hit waiting for the winter train
Lying in your bed, and it begins to rain
Yeah, it feels that way, but it's not the same

I know that you're here and that you want to stay
Wishing all the time that you could run away
Babe, we're only kids, what's one more on the way
Praying every night and day

And it seems like we're just turning
Turning just to make it work
And it seems like we're just turning
Turning just to make it work
All the while, we're always learning
Learning how to make it work
But it seems like we're just turning
Turning 'til we make it work

And when you live a little then you learn to know
It don't always go the way it goes
So I'll take another job you'll work nights at the bar
We can make it work, I know
I know, I know

Turning just to make it work
Turning just to make it work
And it seems like we're just turning
Turning just to make it work
And it seems like we're just turning
Turning just to make it work
