Maria lyrics

Ay, ay, ay, ay, Maria,

my lovely señorita.

My friends warn she's a cheater

and even though I try, I cry.

I cry for Maria.

Maria was a girl I used to know.

She said she loved me, 

but then she hurt me so.

Maria made me run and hide

'cause I feel the pain inside

and I don't think I can make it through 

the lonely night.

I need to feel your love

'cause we fit like hand and glove.

That's why I scream your name 

in the dark of night.

Ay, ay, ay, ay, Maria,

my lovely señorita.

My friends warn she's a cheater

and even though I try, I cry.

I cry for Maria.  

Maria said I'd never be alone.

A fool in love is always last to know.

Maria made me wanna cry,

never thought that she would lie.

And I don't think I can make it 

through the lonely night.

Tell me baby, can't you see?

I need you here with me.

That's why I scream your name 

in the dark of night.

Ay, ay, ay, ay, Maria,

my lovely señorita.

My friends warn she's a cheater

and even though I try, I cry.

I cry for Maria.    

Ay, ay, ay, ay, Maria.

(Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay).

Ay, ay, ay, ay, Maria.

(Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay).

(Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay).

(Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay).  

(Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay). 

(Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay).

Maria made me run and hide

'cause I feel the pain inside

and I don't think I can make it through 

the lonely night.

I need to feel your love

'cause we fit like hand and glove.

That's why I scream your name 

in the dark of night.

Ay, ay, ay, ay, Maria,

my lovely señorita.

My friends warn she's a cheater

and even though I try, I cry.

I cry for Maria.  

Ay, ay, ay, ay, Maria.

(Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay).

Ay, ay, ay, ay, Maria.

(Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay).
