Maria

Maria takes the fall for another love lost
Now she scrapes the top of the sky
Take her name in vain til you feel her pain
Dying in the name of a lie

No better man to make her head over heels
The kind that bring a tear to her eye
Out to the rain she starts to scream out his name
This final one she’ll have to buy

Maria she’s a girl but she’s not of this world
Knows only what she can feel
They met during the night and she felt it was right
Not knowing her heart he would steal

Chased through the dark she got caught by the arm
Her chest, the knife cut out a deal
Life with just one meant a world without fun
A husband’s free and her death became real

Maria falling about while he stands proud
His mind’s peace he has bought
There’s girls in the wings and the better times they'll bring
