love ain't kind to old Maria
she sings a sad sad song, every man has done her wrong
love is blind says old Maria
how else do you explain how she's leaving on her own alone again
but i know she's waiting for a better man to come along and take her
just let her go
and i know she's waiting for a better man to come along and take her
just let her go
you'd be so lucky just to meet her
but good luck pa**ing her by, and that's no word of a lie
she's the kind you'd want to keep her
i'm not man enough myself, and i'm no saint so i guess it's just as well
but i know she's waiting for a better man to come along and take her
just let her go
and i know she's waiting for a better man to come along and take her
just let her go
it's an empty heart of gold that's just weighing her down
it's only foolish love she finds but it's the best she's ever found
won't be long before somebody comes around and takes this girl away
but no no no no not today
but i know she's waiting for a better man to come along and take her
just let her go
and i know she's waiting for a better man to come along and take her
just let her go
