[Verse 1]
I've had love, but his is the deepest, yeah
Says he'll never leave, he means it too, yeah
Ooh, I owe it to you
He was cold and now he's the sweetest, yeah
'Cause he knows how much there is to lose, yeah
Ooh, I owe it to you

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, I owe it to you
Ooh, I owe it to you

[Chorus]
Maria, I know you're gone
But I feel ya when we're alone
Even when I'm here in his arms
I know you're somewhere in his heart

[Post-Chorus]
Maria
Maria
I know you're somewhere in his heart

[Verse 2]
When love comes young, you take it for granted, yeah
Now he knows certain things you can't undo, no
Ooh, I owe it to you
Deepest effect always comes from a cause
I'm better too from the ones that I've lost
Now he is everything I'd ever want
I wanna thank you for all that you've done

[Chorus]
Oh, Maria, I know you're gone
But I feel ya when we're alone
Even when I'm here in his arms
I know you're somewhere in his heart

[Post-Chorus]
Maria
Maria
I know you're somewhere in his heart

[Bridge]
Never thought I could feel this way
Grateful for all the love you gave
Here's to the lovers that make you change
Maria, Maria, Maria

[Chorus]
Maria, I know you're gone
But I feel ya when we're alone (When we're alone)
Even when I'm here in his arms
I know you're somewhere in his heart
Oh, Maria, I look in his eyes and I see ya
Time after time
Even when I'm here in his arms
I know you're somewhere in his heart
