Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She moves like she don't care
Smooth as silk, cool as air
Ooh, it makes you wanna cry
She doesn't know your name
And your heart beats like a subway train
Ooh, it makes you wanna die
[PreChorus]
Ooh, don't you wanna take her?
You wanna make her all your own?
[Chorus]
Maria, you've gotta see her
Go insane and out of your mind
Latina, Ave Maria
A million and one candle lights
[Verse 2]
I've seen this thing before
In my best friend and the boy next door
Fool for love and fool on fire
Won't come in from the rain
She's oceans running down the drain
Blue as ice and desire
[PreChorus]
Don't you wanna make her?
Ooh, don't you wanna take her home?
[Chorus]
Maria, you've gotta see her
Go insane and out of your mind
Latina, Ave Maria
A million and one candle lights
[PreChorus]
Ooh, don't you wanna break her?
Ooh, don't you wanna take her home?
[Verse 3]
She walks like she don't care
You want to take her everywhere
Ooh, it makes you wanna cry
She's like a millionaire
Walking on imported air
Ooh, it makes you wanna die
[Chorus]
Maria, you've gotta see her
Go insane and out of your mind
Latina, Ave Maria
A million and one candle lights
[Chorus]
Maria, you've gotta see her
Go insane and out of your mind
Latina, Ave Maria
A million and one candle lights
[Chorus]
Maria, you've gotta see her
Go insane and out of your mind
Latina, Ave Maria
A million and one candle lights
Maria, you've gotta see her
Go insane and out of your mind
Latina, Ave Maria
A million and one candle lights
