who's gonna tell Maria
he won't be home
who's gonna tell Maria
she's now alone
tell her the life
he wanted took him away
tell her there's no use living for yesterday
hush hush Maria
hush hush Maria
they say it's best they say
hush hush Maria hush Maria
it had to end this way
who's gonna tell Maria
he won't return
who's gonna tell Maria
that love can burn
tell her that love
so simple could never be
tell her that she was looking
but could not see
hush hush Maria
hush hush Maria
they say it's best they say
hush hush Maria hush Maria
it had to end this way
hush hush Maria
hush hush Maria
hush hush Maria
hush hush Maria
who's gonna tell Maria
and tell her son
tell them they lost a man
they never won
who's gonna tell Maria
he won't be home
he was the kind of man
no-one could own
hush hush Maria
hush hush Maria
they say it's best they say
hush hush Maria hush Maria
it had to end this way
hush hush Maria
hush hush Maria
they say it's best they say
hush hush Maria hush Maria
it had to end this way
