Maria (If I Could)

Charles E. Daniels

Maria, you're the only one that ever understood
The way I feel
Maria, you're the only one
To me that was ever real
And yet you beg me go because inside your heart
You know I cannot stay
But keep a light in your window burnin'
Little girl, I'm comin' home some day

Maria, if I only had the power to turn back
The hands of time
I'd spread my wings around you
And little girl, I'd make you mine
'Cause all you ever wanted was to love me
In your plain and honest way
So keep a light in your window burnin'
Little girl, I'm comin' back some day

Oh, Maria, you gave me the precious gift of love
That I have never known
And then you kissed me gently
For when I opened up my eyes, you were gone
And now I'm gonna lose the only good thing
That ever came my way
So keep a light in your window burnin'
Little girl, I'm comin' back some day
Keep a light in your window burnin'
Little girl, I'm comin' back some day
