[Verse 1]
You said, “Speak from your mind
The words that it finds
Come out of your soul, a part of the whole”
You said, “What does it change?
Both of us know
After tonight, there …

Maria…
The most beautiful sound I’ve ever heard:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria…
All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria…
Maria, Maria…
Maria!
I’ve just met a girl named Maria
And …
[Verse 1]
What happens in dreams where we fly?
Never been as high as tonight
Staring through a window in time
For someone to show me what I’m like
He said, “Hello”, it’s like a …
[Verse 1]
Oh-oh-oh, every little smile hides a little lie
Could cut the silence with a knife
Subatomic bliss is nothing left to miss
It’s just empty Russian roulette

Try to brush it off my …
He said, “I’ve been where you’ve been before.
Down every hallway’s a slamming door.”1
No way out, no one to come and save me
Wasting a life that the Good Lord gave me
Then somebody said what I’m saying to you2
Opened my eyes and told me the truth.
They said, “Just a little faith,3 it’ll all get better.”
So I followed that preacher man down to the river4
And now I’m changed
And now I’m stronger
There must’ve been something in the water
Oh, there must’ve been something in the water
Well, I heard what he said and I went on my way5
Didn’t think about it for a couple of days
Then it hit me like a lightning6 late one night
I was all out of hope and all out of fight
Couldn’t fight back the tears so I fell on my knees
Saying, “God, if you’re there come and rescue me.”7
Felt love pouring down from above8
Got washed in the water, washed in the blood9
And now I’m changed
And now I’m stronger10
There must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water11
And now I’m singing along to amazing grace12
Can’t nobody wipe this smile off my face
Got joy in my heart, angels on my side
Thank God almighty, I saw the light13
Gonna look ahead, no turning back
Live everyday, give it all that I have
Trust in someone bigger than me14
Ever since the day that I believed
I am changed
And now I’m stronger
There must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water
Oh, there must be something in the water
Oh, yeah I am changed
Stronger15
