Lyrics
"Climb the stairsAnd step into my dream house"
These words are yours, Maria
The waters warm (Hold me)
The table bare (Till the worst is past)
Until the summer nights return
Until we close our eyes
Maria, your every thought's my heartbeat
Maria, save a thought for me
“Maria” is based on the character of Maria “the witch” in Andrei Tarkovsky’s last film Offret / Sacrificatio.
