SOMEONE'S TAKEN MARIA AWAY
(Chris Andrews)

Adam Faith & The Roulettes - 1965

Also recorded by: Chris Andrews



Warm was the sun when I first met Marie
A living angel appeared before me
Music played and I was in her arms
I surrendered to her charms
Someone's taken Maria away
Somebody's taken Maria away
She won't come back no more, no, no, no, no

I can't forget how we laughed in the rain
Moments so sweet, will I find them again
I can't say just how much I miss
Her lips being there to kiss
Someone's taken Maria away
Somebody's taken Maria away
She won't come back no more, no, no, no, no

(Instrumental Break)

And now she is gone, tears and smile I'll miss them all
No more I'll hear her sweet voice when I call
And if sometimes you should see me cry
It's `cause I'm wonderin' why
Someone's taken Maria away
Somebody's taken Maria away
She won't come back no more, no, no, no, no

Somebody's taken Maria away
Somebody's taken Maria away
She won't come back no more, no, no, no, no

Somebody's taken Maria ..............FADE
