Oh, when she speaks, these Spanish words   It's like a fire in my soul, and it hurts   And when she moves, I cannot sleep   I think I'm strong, but I know I'm so weak   When she's next to me, oh, it's like extasy      Lonely Maria, Maria, Maria   You're such a beautiful but lonely senorita   Lonely Maria, Maria, Maria   Oh, do you have the time, to kiss me, oh, Maria      Maria, Maria, I know, Maria, I miss you so   Maria, Maria don't go, baby, I need you so      Oh, when she dances and when she smiles   It's like an old, old Spanish lullaby   And when she talks, see how she dance   It's like an old, old Spanish love romance   When she's next to me, oh, it's like extasy
