( The most beautiful sound I ever heard )
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria . . .
( All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word )
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria . . .
Maria, Maria . . .
Maria!
Ive just met a girl named Maria!
And suddenly that name will never be the same to me . . .
Maria!
Ive just kissed a girl named Maria!
And suddenly Ive found how wonderful a sound can be . . .
Maria!
Say it loud and theres music playin,
Say it soft and its almost like prayin,
Maria!
Ill never stop sayin Maria!
Maria!
Ive just kissed a girl named Maria!
And suddenly Ive found how wonderful a sound can be . . .
Maria!
Say it loud and theres music playin,
Say it soft and its almost like prayin,
Maria!
Ill never stop sayin Maria!
( The most beautiful sound I ever heard )
Maria!
( Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria . . . )
