Side by side
My face reflected in your eyes
Light up the night
I let you be my guide
Hope and mercy
You and I
Pray for mercy
You and I
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Please don't
Don't turn your back
Yeah I feel something
Like a heartquake under our days
So real my skin
Under pressure feel the tremors
Understanding is all I ask
Please have mercy don't turn your back
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Please don't
Don't turn your back
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Please don't
Don't turn your back
I wish that you could see
Mercy for you and me
I wish that you could see
Mercy for you and me
I wish that you could see
Mercy for you and me
I wish that you could see
Mercy for you and me
We all say stuff
That hurts sometimes
But it's not enough
To break this heart of love
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Please don't
Don't turn your back
