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, 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, and dance in the dark.

She can trace down her soul in the footprints of trouble, but she drank sorrow right out of the bottle,
Through the smoke and the years come some old souvenirs - just a little girl's tears.

Maggie holds her mystery deep inside her heart,
She'll keep the secret memories and dance in the dark, and dance in the dark.
