Maria lyrics

[Intro: Michael Jackson]

Maria hey, hey, Maria

Maria, don't you hear me calling, Maria?

Maria, girl you know you were the only one

[Verse 1]

How was I supposed to know?

That it would cost my soul

Nothin is free', out you

I wanna breathe out you

And how am I supposed to face this lonely life I've created?

Is that the price that I'm payin'

I wanna feel it

[Pre-Chorus 1]

All my life, wouldn't give up

Was too young too know the difference

How did I get so low?

When did I get so cold

Inside of my own mind, I believe my own lies

I'm facing the mirror

[Chorus]

Where, where, where is Maria?

Why, why, why don't I see her?

I, I just wanna see her

Why, why, why don't I see her?

I, I just need to see ya, Maria

[Verse 2]

Now do you hear it in my voice?

That I'm tryna make a choice

I don't know which way to go at this crossroads

You done taped my mouth shut

Make me feel worthless, used up

[Pre-Chorus 2]

So tired of painting all this makeup

'Cause it won't hide my deep cuts

Eyes open but can't see

Mouth open but can't speak

I'm facing the mirror

[Chorus]

Where, where, where is Maria?

Why, why, why don't I see her?

I, I just wanna see her

Where, where, where is Maria?

Oh, I just wanna see ya, Maria

[Bridge]

Oh my lord

Can you take away this heavy load?

I can't carry it anymore

I'm callin' an angel, where is my saviour?

Oh my lord

Can you take away this heavy load?

I can't carry it anymore

I'm callin' an angel, where is my saviour?

[Bridge: Michael Jackson]

Hear my plea for sympathy

I just want you here with me

Hear my plea for sympathy

I just want you here with me

Hear my plea for sympathy

I just want you here with me

Hear my plea for sympathy

You keep running away

[Verse 3]

Can you hear me callin'?

My whole world is fallin'

I can't see ya, oh, I need ya

Can you hear me callin'?

My whole world is fallin'

I can't see ya, oh, I need ya

Don't keep on runnin' away (you keep on runnin' away)

Don't run away, don't run away, no

Don't run away, don't run away, no

Don't you keep on runnin' from me

Don't you keep on runnin' from me

Where, where, where is Maria?

[Outro]

Don't run away, don't run away, no

Don't run away, don't run away, no

Where is Maria?

You know I need ya

Where is Maria?
