Testo Maria

Little girl in polyester dress on holiday
getting nervous, as she walks into the service
People whisper as she passing
"look at her tattered rags"
said the boy on the fourth row from the back
who swears she's an angel

Maria baby don't be shy just go ahead spread your wings
even the bitter hardened hearted wipe their eyes when she sings
and I swear, you're an angel
to me

Then one night, cold black winter
on a lake of frozen white
Maria sang, loudly to the sky
turned and smile as I fell trying to to hide
kissed me on the lips and then she rose up off the ground
without a sound feathers falling all around
tear soaked cheeks as i ran back in the town
screaming there goes my angel

Maria baby don't be shy just go ahead spread your wings
even the bitter hardened hearted wipe their eyes when you sings
and I swear, you're an angel

Maria baby don't be shy just go ahead
spread your wings
even the bitter hardened hearted wipe their eyes when you sings
and I swear
