Sweet Maria

I wonder how so many can be in so much pain,
while others don't seem to feel a thing.
Then I curse my whiteness and I get so damn depressed.
In a world of suffering, why should I be so blessed?

(More from Brett Dennen. The amazing Brett Dennen - or have I said that already?)

But a morning with sweet Maria and those words sum up the feelings deep in my heart....

Thanks Mom. Were you trying to fuel my inner spark by sending Sweet Maria my way this morning? 'Cause if so....




It worked.
