Lyrics

Alan j. lerner/frederick loewe

Away out here they've got a name for rain and wind and fire. the rain is tess, the fire's joe. they call the wind maria
Maria blows the stars around and sets the clouds a-flyin'. maria makes the mountains sound like folks was out there dyin'
Maria. (maria). maria. (maria). they call the wind maria

Before I knew maria's name and heard her wail and whinin', I had a gal. she had me and the sun was always shinin'
But then one day I left my gal. I left her far behind me and now I'm lost, so gol' darn lost not even god can find me
Maria. (maria.) maria. (maria.) they call the wind maria

Out here they have a name for rain and wind and fire only. when you're lost and all alone, there ain't no name for lonely
And I'm a lost and lonely man without a star to guide me. maria blow my love to me. I need my gal beside me
Maria. (maria.) they call the wind maria. maria! maria. (maria.) they call the wind maria
