Maria

[Verse 1]
Bringing in the New Year's Eve alone
The glitter of the party lights turns my face to home
Lovers and acquaintances all through the land
Celebrate a grain of time down miles and miles of sand

[Verse 2]
The wheel of fortune has stopped again
Though the winning number was lost in the wind
But I heard a gypsy swear it was stolen by someone
Who steers a lonesome chariot in circles around the sun

[Chorus]
Maria, I love you
Maria, I miss you

[Verse 3]
The clock strikes twelve and cannons are fired
The echo is heard till a year from tonight
The old man with his sickle just lay down and die
While I held the baby's hand who danced where he lie

[Chorus - Outro]
Maria, I love you
Maria, I miss you
Maria, I love you
Maria, I miss you
Maria, I love you
Maria, I miss you
Maria, I love you
Maria, I miss you
Maria, I love you
Maria, I miss you
Maria
Maria
Maria
Maria
