From the recording Boo Hoo
Lyrics
MAYA
Oh it’s been a long time, since she’s worn flowers in her hair
Oh it’s been a long time
She’s been living alone, for some time now
Oh it’s been a long time
So she waters the garden, she pulls out the weeds
She buries her hands in the soil
Cutting away at the thorns off her roses
Blood, tears and toil
But is there a ghost knocking at your door
‘Cause you don’t stay inside much anymore
Oh Maya, she waits for the rains to come
So she’ll busy away, at the dawn of each day
Oh it’s been a long time
Counting the hours for her seeds to flower
Oh it’s been a long time
So she’ll water the garden, she’ll plant some more seeds
She’ll buries her life in the soil
Cutting away at the thorns off her roses
Blood, tears and toil
But is there a ghost knocking at your door
‘Cause you don’t stay inside much anymore
Oh Maya, she waits for the rains to come
Oh Maya, she waits for the rains to come
