I would not say that she was pretty
She would not knock you off your feet
But all day long I dream about her
And of the love she brings so sweet
And I know
In my heart
In my soul
I need her
Through impending complications
Doubts that scream inside my head
She brings to me consolation
There's nothing more left to be said
And I know
In my heart
In my soul
I need her
Oh my Maria
How I long to see her
Oh my Maria
Wont you wait for me
Oh my Maria
How I long to see her
Oh my Maria
Wont you wait for me
At the station such a long time
Once again to see her face
In the shadow that's become me
Just a smile will loose my chains
And I know
In my heart
In my soul
I need her
Oh my Maria
How I long to see her
Oh my Maria
Wont you wait for me
Oh my Maria
How I long to see her
Oh my Maria
Wont you wait for me
