Side by side
My face reflected in your eyes
Light up the night
I let you be my guide
Hope and mercy, you and I
Pray for mercy, you and I
Oh, oh, oh, Maria, ah, ah, ah
Oh, oh, oh, Maria, ah, ah, ah
Please don't, don't turn your back
Yeah, I feel something
Like a heart quake under our days
So real, my skin
Under pressure, feel the tremors
Understanding is all I ask
Please have mercy, don't turn your back
Oh, oh, oh, Maria, ah, ah, ah
Oh, oh, oh, Maria, ah, ah, ah
Please don't, don't turn your back
Oh, oh, oh, Maria, ah, ah, ah
Oh, oh, oh, Maria, ah, ah, ah
Please don't, don't turn your back
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah
I wish that you could see mercy for you and me
I wish that you could see mercy for you and me
I wish that you could see mercy for you and me
I wish that you could see mercy for you and me
We all say stuff that hurts sometimes
But it's not enough to break this heart of love
Oh, oh, oh, Maria, ah, ah, ah
Oh, oh, oh, Maria, ah, ah, ah
Please don't, don't your turn back
