About Maria

In “Maria,” Dua interprets the failure of past relationships as appreciative experiences whose effects will carry into new ones. This appreciation is extended to the ex of her new partner – Maria – who through similar shortcomings has shaped the partner they are today. Dua first spoke about the song in an interview on the Zach Sang Show weeks before its release. She reiterated the song’s concept on Z100 New York. "“Maria” is another interesting perspective of full personal maturing moment .

Maria Lyrics

[00:10.03] I've had love, but his is the deepest, yeah
[00:16.59] Says he'll never leave, he means it too, yeah
[00:21.63] Ooh, I owe it to you
[00:24.80] He was cold, and now he's the sweetest, yeah
[00:31.62] 'Cause he knows how much there is to lose, yeah
[00:36.73] Ooh, I owe it to you
[00:40.48] Ooh, I owe it to you
[00:44.28] Ooh, I owe it to you
[00:47.26] Maria, I know you're gone
[00:50.80] But I feel ya when we're alone
[00:54.84] Even when I'm here in his arms
[00:58.67] I know you're somewhere in his heart
[01:02.26] Maria
[01:09.85] Maria
[01:13.84] I know you're somewhere in his heart
[01:17.46] When love comes young, you take it for granted, yeah
[01:24.54] Now, he knows, certain things you can't undo, no
[01:29.60] Ooh, I owe it to you
[01:32.87] Deepest effect always comes from a cause
[01:36.48] I'm better too from the ones that I've lost
[01:40.22] Now, he is everythin' I'd ever want
[01:44.08] I wanna thank you for all that you've done
[01:47.55] Oh, Maria, I know you're gone
[01:51.21] But I feel ya when we're alone
[01:55.34] Even when I'm here in his arms
[01:59.11] I know you're somewhere in his heart
[02:02.77] Maria
[02:10.30] Maria
[02:14.39] I know you're somewhere in his heart
[02:18.40] Never thought I could feel this way
[02:22.13] Grateful for all the love you gave
[02:25.63] Here's to the lovers that make you change
[02:29.18] Maria, Maria, Maria
[02:32.95] Maria, I know you're gone
[02:36.54] But I feel ya when we're alone
[02:40.70] Even when I'm here in his arms
[02:44.70] I know you're somewhere in his heart
[02:47.93] Oh, Maria, I look in his eyes
[02:51.79] And I see ya, time after time
[02:55.86] Even when I'm here in his arms
[02:59.62] I know you're somewhere in his heart
[03:03.11]
