Oh when I first saw her she really stole my eye
All alone on the corner while the mortals passed her by
Towards me she came and offered me her name
And I
I could barely say hello
She asked for directions
I had something else in mind
And I had to let her know
Maria
Maria
Maria
I got this crazy idea
Let's take a chance you and me
Oh Maria
Maria
Maria
Maria
Cuz I just can't wait to see ya
And I never want to leave ya
Oh Maria
She was new to the city so I showed her all the spots
Like the bistro and my coffee shop
And she looked so pretty and that shirt was kinda hot
As it hung just round her shoulder
I know it's a long shot and it could go wrong
Oh I
I've seen it all before
She's just a girl
She wants to see the world
But I
I got to let her know
Maria
Maria
Maria
I got this crazy idea
Let's take a chance you and me
Oh Maria
Maria
Maria
Maria
Cuz I just can't wait to see ya
And I never want to leave ya
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Cuz baby I've been listening and I really like your sound
And maybe when my ship comes in
You'll be around
Say love
Say love
Say love
