Lyrics
I’ve seen things that no one else could to see
Maria, Maria
And in a dark time yeah, you came to me
Maria, Maria
People laugh they say I’ve lost my mind
Maria, Maria
Put all my treasure into ‘quiet time’
Maria, Maria
Nobody ever seems to ask why I’m crying
And that’s cause no one ever sees
If I could speak there are no words that could capture
What in my heart you’ve done to me
And castles and mountains they will waste away
Maria, Maria
And man and his miseries are made of clay
Maria, Maria
But He formed us in our mother’s womb
Maria, Maria
To be born again from a small dark tomb
Maria, Maria
Nobody ever seems to ask me why I’m crying
And that’s cause no one ever sees
But some love I have been captured and I can’t leave
Yet in this love I am set free
There is no photograph or measurement of feeling
So a reasoned man could prove
It seems I’m wounded by a flame and yet I’m healing
And my stony heart is something new
I get scared, I take your hand and pray
Maria, Maria
And every fear I have it melts away
Maria, Maria
Every secret of my heart made clean
Maria, Maria
Because in seeing you I have been seen
Maria, Maria
Call me an idiot, a peddler, a martyr
I should give everything for you
Not that your love is ever bought or sold or bartered
But I’ve got nothing left to lose
There is more to be said within a silent understanding
Than in a thousand wasted words
From my seeking or my searching have I found you?
Or was it you who saw me first
Maria, Maria
Maria, Maria
