La Canzone di Maria

I don't believe in another Maria,
I can't be wrong, I know.

There's a story going around town,
it's a story about you.
People have been talking about it for a month,
you know how people in the countryside are.

I remember, you arrived by bus
with the clean face you have.
And us men at the bar that evening
we laughed happier than ever.

Maria, Maria, Maria,
the only memory I have.
I don't believe in another Maria,
I can't be wrong, I know.

One sunny Italian afternoon
we met, you and I.
Poppies and wheat smiled at us,
I fell on the grass with you.

Now they say you left me,
you went back to the city forever.
Everyone says you started over
and that you sell happiness.

Maria, Maria, Maria,
the only memory I have.
I don't believe in another Maria,
I can't be wrong, I know.

Maria, Maria, Maria,
the only memory I have.
I don't believe in another Maria,
I can't be wrong, I know.
