Lyrics Maria - Chris Cagle

Maria

I’m exhausted, trying to catch my breath the morning' after
I hold my coffee with shaking hands and my world in disarray
Lost by the softness and the strength that’s in her hands
I see her face and I can barely stand
But oh the sweet redemption every time she mentions that she wants me
Oh, that she needs me
Oh Maria your kisses knock me over
Make me drunk then leave me sober
They let me know that I’m a man
Maria, your touch it almost kills me
Then it turns around and heals me
I get lost and found again
In the arms of a woman that a mother gave the name, Maria
Tender power
The gift she gives me gets me through the day
Midnight hour
I reach across the bed where she lay
Then I look up and see the moon dance on her skin
My heart starts poundin' once again
It’s a sweet intoxication, a powerful frustration
How I want her, oh, how I need her
Oh, Maria
Your kisses knock me over
Make me drunk then leave me sober
They let me know that I’m a man
Maria
Your touch, it almost kills me
Then it turns around and heals me
I get lost and found again
In the arms of a woman
In the arms of a woman that a mother
In the arms of a woman that a mother gave the name Maria
I’m exhausted
I’m still trying to catch my breath
Maria
Oh, maria
