Mayan Skies Lyrics

I can see red is the colour of life in a Mayan sky
I can see green is the colour of jungle in Mayan skies
Mexico speaks at the sunrise

I can see yellow's the colour of gold under Mayan skies
Tempting children who came to get rich under Mayan skies
Mexico speaks at the sunrise

Mayan skies sleep talk with voices of lovers
In torture and suffering they soothe one another
The passion of youth kisses age in a nation
The passion of youth kisses age in a nation
The Mayan skies painting a colour creation up above

I can see red green and yellow the colours of Mayan skies

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
