We waved our hands goodbye that day I know that she wanted to stay Maria had to make her way to fly To do a show the other night "breathing" was the song she loved And she was the only one to sing it perfectly And now she's gone to paradise Somehow i feel her here tonight I feel maria is in the air I can feel her everywhere I feel maria is in the air Coming tonight Maria is in the air She said "it's always great to be With you" and "believe in me" Such a good time is what we had Now she's gone and i feel bad I heard the news and i had to cry The only thought i had was "why?" And now she's gone to paradise Somehow i feel her here tonight I feel maria is in the air I can feel her everywhere I feel maria is in the air Coming tonight Maria is in the air
