I find that I’m a little both under and over the weather
I feel like I’d be better off
That’s when you came and danced across my mind
And I ran out the back through the door to the pavement
Get no answers on the telephone so I went to see if you were home
And like every time before
I muster up the guts to put a knock on the door
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s leaving
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s gone oh yeah
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s leaving
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s gone oh yeah
Too late
You know the usual trapped by some prior engagement
Ah relax it’s cool it’s fine
Oh and send my best regards to the other guys in line
I think it’s time for you to choose your man and go
Do you even hear the knock anymore
Now a window once an open door
Oh she says this time for sure
But I think I’ve heard that phrase just one to many times before
And if you know
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s leaving
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s gone oh yeah
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s leaving
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s gone
And just when you think Maria’s got the best of you
You say it’s just the game and it’s the round I lose
But it’s her who missed the good inside the rest of you
And now it’s Maria who sings the blues
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s leaving
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s gone oh yeah
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s leaving
And if you love Maria
That’s when she’s gone
