I'm exausted
Trying to catch my breath the morning after
Pour my coffee
With shaking hands and my world in disarray

Lost in the softness and the strength that's in her hands
I see her face and I can barely stand
But oh, the sweet redemption every time she mentions
That she wants me, oh, that she needs me

Oh, Maria
Your kisses knock me over
Make me drunk and leave me sober
They let me know that I'm a man
Maria
Your touch, it almost kills me
Then it turns around and heals me
I get lost and found again
In the arms of a woman that a mother gave the name Maria

Tender power
The gift she gives me gets me through the day
Midnight hour
I reach across the bed where she lay
Then I look up and see the moon dance on her skin
My heart starts pounding once again
It's a sweet intoxication, a powerful frustration
How I want her, oh, how I need her

Oh, Maria
Your kisses knock me over
Make me drunk and leave me sober
They let me know that I'm a man
Maria
Your touch, it almost kills me
Then it turns around and heals me
I get lost and found again
In the arms of a woman that a mother gave the name Maria

Oh, Maria
Your kisses knock me over
Make me drunk and leave me sober
They let me know that I'm a man
Maria
Your touch, it almost kills me
Then it turns around and heals me
I get lost and found again
In the arms of a woman
In the arms of a woman that a mother
In the arms of a woman that a mother gave the name Maria

I'm exhausted
I'm still trying to catch my breath
Maria
Oh, Maria
Maria
