Mara Songtext

Mara Songtext
Mara, a gypsy girl, fell in love with a gorgeou
She told him all her dreams, he said, "I don′t fucking care"
The young girl turned 'round, went outside in the starless night
A spell for herself and her despair
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
So the devil said, "All right, sell me the souls of your family"
He turned them into strings, into a sound box and a bow
A fiddle was born and Mara learned to play
A magic tune and this time the boy couldn′t say no
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
You wanna hear the end of this? Sit down and I will tell The devil came back after one kiss and carried them both to hell
The fiddle was dropped and left behind under a crying moon
Until a boy came of Mara's kind, picked it up and played his tune
Aaaargh!
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, no, no, Mara, no
Mara, my child, what have you done?
Mara, no, no, Mara, no
Mara, what have you done?
She told him all her dreams, he said, "I don′t fucking care"
The young girl turned 'round, went outside in the starless night
A spell for herself and her despair
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
So the devil said, "All right, sell me the souls of your family"
He turned them into strings, into a sound box and a bow
A fiddle was born and Mara learned to play
A magic tune and this time the boy couldn′t say no
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
You wanna hear the end of this? Sit down and I will tell The devil came back after one kiss and carried them both to hell
The fiddle was dropped and left behind under a crying moon
Until a boy came of Mara's kind, picked it up and played his tune
Aaaargh!
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, what have you done?
Mara, no, no, Mara, no
Mara, my child, what have you done?
Mara, no, no, Mara, no
Mara, what have you done?
