Lyrics

The most beautiful sound I ever heard
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria...
All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria...
Maria, Maria...
Maria!
I've just met a girl named Maria
And suddenly that name
Will never be the same
To me
Maria!
I've just kissed a girl named Maria
And suddenly I've found
How wonderful a sound
Can be!
Maria!
Say it loud and there's music playing—
Say it soft and it's almost like praying—
Maria...
I'll never stop saying Maria!
Maria! Maria! Maria! Maria!
Maria!
Maria! Maria! Maria!
Maria!
Say it loud and there's music playing—
Say it soft and it's almost like praying—
Maria...
I'll never stop saying Maria!
The most beautiful sound I ever heard
Maria
