 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Maria, the most beautiful sound I ever heard
(Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria)
All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word
(Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria)

Maria, I just met a girl named Maria
And suddenly that name will never be the same to me
Maria, I just kissed a girl named Maria
And suddenly, I found how wonderful a sound can be

Maria, say it loud and there's music playing
Say it soft and it's almost like praying
Maria, I'll never stop saying Maria
(Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria)

Maria, Maria, say it loud and there's music playing
Say it soft and it's almost like praying
Maria, I'll never stop saying Maria
The most beautiful sound I ever heard, Maria
