Side by side
My face reflected in your eyes
Light up the night
I let you be my guide

Hope and mercy, you and I
Pray for mercy, you and I

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Maria
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Maria
Please don't
Don't turn your back

Yeah, I feel something
Like a heartquake under our days
So real, my skin
Under pressure, feel the tremors

Understanding is all I ask
Please have mercy, don't turn your back

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Maria
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Maria
Please don't
Don't turn your back
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Maria
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Maria
Please don't
Don't turn your back

I wish that you could see
Mercy for you and me
I wish that you could see
Mercy for you and me
I wish that you could see
Mеrcy for you and me
I wish that you could see
Mercy for you and me
Wе all say stuff that hurts sometimes
But it's not enough to break this heart of love

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Maria
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Maria
Please don't
Don't turn your back
