Maria, If I Could lyrics

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 bid 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 ever 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...
