Maria I recall a time you barely knew my name
Hanging with the guys outside your door
I never dared to dream that I would soon become the one
You'd find out later you were waiting for
Maria I remember all those promises I made
Standing in the church with all our friends
I poured out all my heart and I meant every word I said
And I still feel the way that I did then
Oh Maria you're changing
The fire in your eyes is nearly gone
Oh Maria I need to feel you smile
Hey Maria come on
Maria now the children are all grown up and gone
I told each one how I enjoyed the ride
We've waited all our lives just to have this time alone
There's still so many things we haven't tried
Oh Maria you're changing
The fire in your eyes is nearly gone
Oh Maria I need to feel you smile
Hey Maria come on
Oh Maria you're changing
The fire in your eyes is nearly gone gone gone
Oh Maria I need to feel you smile
Hey Maria come on please Maria come on
Oh Maria you re changing
