to Mr. Leonard Bernstein.
There's something due any day
Gleaming it's eye bright as a rose,
It's only just out of reach
Down a block, on a beach,
Got a feeling there's a miracle too
Gotta come true, coming to me
Something's coming, something good
With a click, with a shock,
Portal jingle, doral knock,
Don't know when, but soon,
Catch the moon, one -handed catch,
A -whistling down the river,
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria,
will never be the same to me
I've just kissed a girl named Marie
how wonderful the sound can be
say it soft and it's almost
Maria, I'll never stop singing
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria,
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria
Say it loud and there's music playing
I'll never stop saying Maria
Maria, the most beautiful sound I have ever
and waits for us somewhere
time to gather with, time to spare, time to learn,
and time to care, somehow, someday,
we'll find a new way of living,
and we'll that a way of forgiving
