Maria -she's too young to understand, but old enough to fell the pain  Of living where no love can grow with no hope for change  Maria - her world is an angry place but she makes sure that scars don't show  And with every hurt her tender heart is growing cold (but)  CHORUS  Who, who's gonna love Maria  Who, who's gonna touch her with the tenderness she longs for  Like a desert longs for rain  She's got a hunger deep inside and with every tear she cries  She wonders if there's someone out there somewhere  Who's gonna love Maria  (Maria) she looks in the mirror now and the little girl is gone  But still the search for someone's love goes on and on for Maria  But does anybody care or even notice her at all  Is anyone listening close enough to hear her call (and who)  CHORUS  Who, who's gonna love Maria  Who, who's gonna touch her with the tenderness she longs for  Like a desert longs for rain  She's got a hunger deep inside and with every tear she cries  She wonders if there's someone out there  BRIDGE  Maria if you can hear me, please know that you're not forgotten  Somebody's trying to get to you  (Chorus 1)
