Maria, how I love you, love you
Nothing in my life above you
Maria, with a heart that beats for me
Maria, Maria, you're for me

Maria made my heart surrender
Never tasted lips so tender
Maria, with a smile that's meant for me
Maria, Maria, you're for me

And when I'm feeling blue, she talks to me
She makes me feel like a brand new man, she walks with me
She talks to me, she understands

Maria made my life worth living
Though I hurt her, she's forgiving
Maria, you're a girl who's good for me
Maria, Maria, you're for me

Maria, Maria, you're for me
Maria, Maria, you're for me
