Lyrics

Intro

Glenboy Music

Mmm-mmm

Verse 1

Empty pots

Three small faces looking up for answers

Maria packed the denim bag

Leaving behind a man who loved her like a queen

Pre-Chorus

She found a boy with smoother hands

She traded gold for shining sand

Now the dinner table stays quiet

Chorus

Oh Maria

Tell me why you ran away

Maria

My three children cry for you today

Why you ran away

My three children cry for you today

(Cry for you today)

Post-Chorus

Yeah

Lord have mercy

Oh-oh

Verse 2

That boy won't build a house

Josh had his heart cut by a rusty blade

Sleepless nights

Broken promises floating in the evening air

Pre-Chorus

She found a boy with smoother hands

She traded gold for shining sand

Now the dinner table stays quiet

Chorus

Oh Maria

Tell me why you ran away

Maria

My three children cry for you today

Why you ran away

My three children cry for you today

(Cry for you today)

Bridge

Josh is walking

Josh is waiting

Josh is weeping

Underneath the mango tree

Watching birds fly south

Instrumental Break

Chorus

Oh Maria

Tell me why you ran away

Maria

My three children cry for you today

Why you ran away

My three children cry for you today

(Cry for you today)
