Like A Mile Wide Tornado,
Coming Through The Mid-West.
She Walked Into My Scene,
And You Know The Rest.
I Heard She Never Got Those Letters That I Sent,
I Got A Few From Her, Wonderin' How She'd Been. She Said,

"(?) I Always Kinda Liked The Way You Talked.
How You'd Give Away The Gold Like It Was Any Other Rock."

Chorus:
Maria, How You Come Around And Throw Your Bad Advice At Me,
But You're Upon A Pedestal, Sparks And Electricity.
Maria, I Could Settle Down, And I Need You Desperately,
But I Can Never Get Enough, Of These Things That Are Killing Me.

Hey

Once Upon An Idea, I Loved The Girls Like You,
The Sleepless Nights And Blown Out Fights, They Were Funny Too.
But Then She Laid Her Charm, It Always Would Wear Off,
The Price I Paid Always Outwieghed Any Other Costs.

"(?) I Always Kinda Liked The Way You Talked.
How You'd Give Away The Gold Like It Was Any Other Rock."

Chorus

You Know She's Just A Little Girl,
But, She's Uncontrolling Wave,
The Harder You Swim Against It, The Further You End Up Out At Sea.

Chorus
No, I Can Never Get Enough, Of These Things That Are Killing Me.
Hey
