I got your picture

I'm coming with you

Dear Maria, count me in

There's a story at the bottom of this bottle and I'm the pen



When the lights go off

I wanna watch the way you take the stage by storm

The way you wrap those boys around your finger

Go on and play the leader

Cause you know it's what you're good at

The low road for the fast track

Make every second last



Cause I got your picture

I'm coming with you

Dear Maria, count me in

There's a story at the bottom of this bottle and I'm the pen

Make it count when I'm the one who's selling you out

Cause it feels like stealing hearts

Calling your name from the crowd



Then in the field

You'll be the showgirl of the home team

I'll be the narrator

Telling another tale of the American dream



I see your name in lights

We could make you a star

Girl, we'll take the world by storm

It isn't that hard



Cause I got your picture

I'm coming with you

Dear Maria, count me in

There's a story at the bottom of this bottle and I'm the pen

Make it count when I'm the one who's selling you out

Cause it feels like stealing hearts

Calling your name from the crowd



Take a breath

Don't it sound so easy?

Never had a doubt

Now I'm going crazy watching from the floor

Take a breath and let the rest come easy

Never settle down

Cause the cash flow leaves me always wanting more



Cause I got your picture

I'm coming with you

Dear Maria, count me in

There's a story at the bottom of this bottle and I'm the pen

Make it count when I'm the one who's selling you out

Cause it feels like stealing hearts

Calling your name from the crowd



Cause I got your picture

I'm coming with you

Dear Maria, count me in

There's a story at the bottom of this bottle
