I need to heart-break-loose-the wind Dedela umoya wami, baba (set my spirit free, father) Take my heart away (repeat) To be the sound of wild geese calling To be ten seasons in a night To dance the sun beyond the tides of war and peace To put silence

Let it rain Move along, the weather's changing Won't you take me home and carry me away Winter's gone, the clouds are fading The sun might shine, but still it's not the same A gray sky so comfortable, whisper goodbye But every time I only hear good night

My Maria (Oh Maria I love you girl, oh my Maria) Maria (Oh Maria I love you girl, Maria) I love you My Maria don't you know I've come a long, long way I been longin' to see her When she's around she takes my blues away Sweet Maria the sunlight surely

My Maria (Oh Maria I love you girl, oh my Maria) Maria (Oh Maria I love you girl, Maria) I love you My Maria don't you know I've come a long, long way I been longin' to see her When she's around she takes my blues away Sweet Maria the sunlight surely

The sun goes down He takes the day, but I'm grown And in your way He walks away My tears dry on their own In this blue shade So we are history Your shadow covers me The sky above ablaze

The sun goes down He takes the day, but I'm grown And in your way He walks away My tears dry on their own In this blue shade So we are history Your shadow covers me The sky above ablaze

Run away, now She used to meet me on the Eastside In the city where the sun don't set He used to meet me on the Eastside We can go anywhere we want Drive down to the coast, jump in the seat We can do anything if we put our minds to it Take your whole

Sunday morning, I forgot my prayer I should have been happy, I still be there Something could have come and taken me away But the mainman felt Sly should be here another day That's why I got to be thankful yeah, yeah I gotta be thoughtful Ah ha thankful,

So please don't take my sunshine away You are my sunshine my only sunshine You make me happy when skies are grey You'll never know dear how much I love you I'll always love you and make you happy If you will only say the same But if you leave me for

My Maria (Oh Maria I love you girl, oh my Maria) Maria (Oh Maria I love you girl, Maria) I love you My Maria don't you know I've come a long, long way I been longin' to see her When she's around she takes my blues away Sweet Maria the sunlight surely
