It makes you want it more when you close those eyes   Taking water for granted, she is in disguise   And the ocean set her free and her opal skies   Lightning without any thunder meeting Maria's prize   And there is something about you   Something about you   There's something inside of you   There's something inside so true,    As the city falls down, we all bow but we can't falter now   When the hurricane's down, it seems we've gone and lost her somehow   Waves crashing down, beating me down to the ground   But she doesn't make a sound      An empty bottle spins in the morning rain   Message washed away before it left the lake   And no cloak to hold the truth, no truth to take   Maria still pushes it along for the effort's sake   And there is something about you   Something about you   There's something inside of you   There's something inside so true,    As the city falls down, we all bow but we can't falter now   When the hurricane's down, it seems we've gone and lost her somehow   Waves crashing down, beating me down to the ground   But she doesn't make a sound      Maria pushed this boat along   It's beautiful, so beautiful   She let the seagulls have their song   It's beautiful, so beautiful   As the city falls down, we all bow but we can't falter now   Hurricane's down, it seems we've gone and lost her somehow   Waves crashing down, beating me down to the ground   But she doesn't make a sound
