....In the sunlight of your smile. In the summer of our life
In the magic of love. Storms above scattered away
Lovers dreaming in the night. Reaching for Paradise
But as the dark shadows fade.Love slips away

On an empty stretch of beach. In the pattern of the waves
Drawing pictures with my hand.In the sand, I see your face
Skipping pebbles on the sea. Wishing for Paradise
Sand castles crumble below. The restless tides ebb and flow

Listening to a shell
Hoping for your voice
Beautiful Maria of my soul

Though we'll always be apart. Locked forever in a dream
If I ever love again. Even then, nothing will change
And the taste of you remains. Clinging to Paradise
But as the distance from you grows. All that my heart ever knows

Hunger for your kiss
Longing for your touch
Beautiful Maria of my soul

Filling all my nights
Haunting all my days
Beautiful Maria of my soul
