Maria, I recall a time you barely knew my name,
Hanging with the guys outside your door;
I never dared to dream that I would soon become the one,
You'd find out later you were waiting for.
Maria, I remember all those promises I made,
Standing in the church with all our friends;
I poured out all my heart and I meant every word I said,
And I still feel the way that I did then.
Oh, Maria, you're changing,
The fire in your eyes is nearly gone;
Oh, Maria, I need to feel you smile,
Hey, Maria, come on.
Maria, now the children are all grown up and gone,
I told each one how I enjoyed the ride;
We've waited all our lives just to have this time alone,
There's still so many things we haven't tried.
Oh, Maria, you're changing,
The fire in your eyes is nearly gone;
Oh, Maria, I need to feel you smile,
Hey, Maria, come on.
Oh, Maria, you're changing,
The fire in your eyes is nearly gone, gone, gone;
Oh, Maria, I need to feel you smile,
Hey, Maria, come on please, Maria, come on,
Oh, Maria, you're changing.
