She smiles like the stars and her hair is raven
she's a beautiful angel sent from heaven
she shines like a light she fractures the night
and this barroom's alright

maggie holds her mystery deep inside her heart
she'll keep the secret memories and dance in the dark

you can tell her your longings she will love it
if you ask of the past she won't speak of it
she never will show and you never will know of the child long ago

maggie holds her mystery deep inside her heart
she'll keep the secret memories and dance in the dark

she can trace down her soul in the footprints of trouble
when she drank sorrow right out of the bottle
through the smoke and the years come some old souvenirs
just a little girl's tears
