The time, the time , we're on borrowed time
Let's go to bed now, I'll hold you 'till daylight
Why does falling in love, mean losing my mind
And to make matters worse, I'm the jealous kind

The curve of your neck, look at me, I'm a wreck
Dancing with my Maria
If I let go a tear, well, it's just my fear
Of losing you my Maria
Your softness, your lips, my hand on your hips
Dancing with my Maria
The night's not over yet, how much time do I get
Dancing with my Maria

The night, the night, half spent is the night
It's four in the morning, but I'm not at all tired
Someday, someone will come, and try and steal you from me
If they love you more than I do, I'll let you go free

My cheek against your hair, lighter than air
Dancing with my Maria
If I let go a tear, well it's just my fear
Of losing you, my Maria
Time slows to a crawl, 'till there's no time at all
Dancing with my Maria
Love is roulette, there's no safety net
Dancing with my Maria
