Ever since we kissed,
she filled my mind.
Slowly leaves my grip,
got stuck inside.

I know I need her,
she s my bestest friend,
eventhough I never
even held her hand.

And she's quick to live,
and she's quick to learn.
She's quick to give,
and she's quick to burn.

CHORUS:
Mary makes me happy,
My Maria makes me happy.
Mary makes me happy,
my Maria makes me happy.

She says she loves me,
says I make her proud.
But because of her,
I make others loud.

But she'll keep me safe,
she'll keep me warm.
They tell me all to leave her,
but she does no harm.

And she belongs to me,
but pleases all.
Kisses everyone,
returns home so small.

CHORUS

And now my memory's gone,
and my Mary's gone.
To the sky above,
her soul belongs.

And it's so depressive,
had to let her go.
Now I see clearly,
her important roll.

That Mary made me happy
my Maria made me happy

And I'll tell you all, I'll tell you all, I'll tell you all, someother time.
I'll tell you all, I'll tell you all, how my sweet Maria stole my life
