Oh my Maria 
Seems you got me in your spell once more 
Must be there's a storm on the way 
You taught me to know when you're near 

In your glance 
Recall my shady days of youth 
Stealing altar wine and microphones 
Not so blindly fueling my need 
As rock and roll fueled my dreams 
You know rock and roll fueled my dreams 

Back then you saw me as this child 
In great need of the wildest sin 
How sweet your grace I stumbled in 
And how completely you waved 
As I laughed in your face 
Oh my Maria 

Oh my Maria 
How you stood for strength and sanity 
Now is there someone poking holes in thee 
I see now why you called me near 
Maria my song can you hear 

I know you see the silence on the sidewalk 
And the anger in the street 
And the voices of all these children 
Coming up to my feet 
And we sing your song in vain 
As some preacher sees his reign 
Come down 
Maria 
Oh my sweet, Maria 

In the silence on the hill 
You know I'll be dreaming of you still 
Maria, oh my Maria 

I sing for my Maria 
I sing for my Maria
