Maya by Hudson Freeman Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I’ve seen the sun go down as pretty as before, while every second since has been an utter bore
I am so unconcerned with my sappy statements since that night. I can hear your breath in my heaving chest. Well, every coward counts all his moments left. I don’t know my mind. I don’t know the rest
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well, if you wonder how it feels when I flee, it’s another dance stumbling over plans
[Chorus]
Maya, I..uh, I…uh. Maya, I…uh, I…uh
I…uh want, I…uh want, I…uh want. I wanna take your hand
I’ll try ya, try ya, try ya. Maya, I…uh, I…uh
I…uh want, I…uh want, I…uh want. I wanna take your hand and place it in mine
[Verse 2]
I’ll fumble with my words as you gather speed. I can see your eyes, maybe I’m seeing things
Somehow I’m unaware of how unaware you choose to be. And if you look too close, you’ll find there’s nothing there
Please don’t catch my eyes, please don’t catch me stare. Please don’t catch me stare
[Pre-Chorus 2]
It’s hard to see the silver lining past the glare
And to realize that only every soul is scared
If you know now how it feels when I retreat, It is a wonder, babe, what you’d even say
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Maybe you’ve been as apparent as can be and maybe I just can’t content myself to see
That the distance between us lessens with each beat, but I keep muttering
As every melody comes swelling past the seats and all your fingers feel like simple, major keys
All my confidence betrays the songs I sing cause I keep stumbling
Maya, love, I know I wander through the streets like a motive; I just circle and repeat
Well, if you wonder how it feels when I flee, now quit your wondering. Now, quit your wondering
No more wondering. Wondering. Wondering. Now quit your wondering. Your wondering. Your wondering
I’ve seen the sun go down as pretty as before, while every second since has been an utter bore
I am so unconcerned with my sappy statements since that night. I can hear your breath in my heaving chest. Well, every coward counts all his moments left. I don’t know my mind. I don’t know the rest
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well, if you wonder how it feels when I flee, it’s another dance stumbling over plans
[Chorus]
Maya, I..uh, I…uh. Maya, I…uh, I…uh
I…uh want, I…uh want, I…uh want. I wanna take your hand
I’ll try ya, try ya, try ya. Maya, I…uh, I…uh
I…uh want, I…uh want, I…uh want. I wanna take your hand and place it in mine
[Verse 2]
I’ll fumble with my words as you gather speed. I can see your eyes, maybe I’m seeing things
Somehow I’m unaware of how unaware you choose to be. And if you look too close, you’ll find there’s nothing there
Please don’t catch my eyes, please don’t catch me stare. Please don’t catch me stare
[Pre-Chorus 2]
It’s hard to see the silver lining past the glare
And to realize that only every soul is scared
If you know now how it feels when I retreat, It is a wonder, babe, what you’d even say

No more wondering. Wondering. Wondering. Now quit your wondering. Your wondering. Your wondering
