Guillermo and Maria
By Edward Kenny
In Los Angeles tonight,
There are so many shattered dreams,
Left like shards of broken light
From a star that no longer beams.
Once the city was their home,
But now he walks an empty street,
And he needs a tender touch
Just to take the glass from his feet.
And Guillermo and Maria, (Chorus)
Romeo and Juliet,
Knew what it was to be in love
And they never will forget.
And Guillermo and Maria,
By the palm trees and the sea,
They never knew that paradise
Was so close to tragedy.
Beneath the iconic sign,
She wonders what could have gone wrong,
But he's closer than she thinks
And he's humming the same sad song.
But to forgive is the key,
We're only human after all
And if only we could see,
That even angels sometimes fall.
And Guillermo and Maria, (Chorus)
Romeo and Juliet,
Knew what it was to be in love,
And they never will forget.
And Guillermo and Maria,
By the palm trees and the sea,
They never knew that paradise,
Was so close to tragedy.
Así que vuelve a mí (So come back to me), (Bridge)
Y sanar mi corazón (And heal my heart),
Nunca digas adiós (Never say goodbye),
Never leave me all alone.
And Guillermo and Maria, (Chorus)
Romeo and Juliet,
Knew what it was to be in love,
And they never will forget.
And Guillermo and Maria,
By the palm trees and the sea,
They never knew that paradise,
Was so close to tragedy.
