Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hair pitch black like the midnight sky
Eyes like the jungle
You're something wild
[Verse 2]
Her sweet melody sings wherever I go
Running through my mind
Sitting in this road
[PreChorus]
Maybe I'll
Write a letter from this little old
Country town
Down in Texas
[PreChorus]
(Ooh) I'll keep it here for you
[Chorus]
Mariella, Mariella
Mariella, Mariella
Mariella, Mariella
Mari, can we go together?
[Verse 3]
Nothing here changes, seasons go by
You said, "Hello"
You said, "Goodbye"
[Verse 4]
Did you run away?
Mariella, where did you go?
Somewhere new
Somewhere old
[PreChorus]
Maybe I
Don't ever wanna live alone
In a country town
Down in Texas
[PreChorus]
(Ah, ah, ah) The memory of you
[Chorus]
Mariella, Mariella
Mariella, Mariella
Mariella, Mariella
Mariella, Mariella
Mariella, Mariella
Mariella, Mariella
Mariella, Mariella
Mariella, holding onto you
[Outro]
Ooh
Ooh
