"Maria Love" lyrics

"Maria Love"

Well, it was 1969
The streets were on fire
But only in black-and-white
And I was only a boy, but I saw them crucify
Oh, what an awful sight

And it looked like a holy war
Is anybody keeping score?

Maria love
Love is needed
Can anybody see it?
Maria love
Why we wait and hesitate

Well, some stayed in bed for peace
And some took giant leaps
A foreigner friend played on a rooftop
All the science in the world
Couldn't save us from ourselves
Oh, Lord, when will it ever stop?

'Cause it looked like a holy war
Oh, and no-one was keeping score

Maria love
Love is needed
Can anybody see it?
Maria love
Why we wait and hesitate
Maria love

Flowers can grow through cement
Great oaks and rivers bend
Power to the people. Let's not pretend
When will the madness end?

Well, it looks like a holy war
Is anybody keeping score?

Maria love
Love is needed
Can anybody see it?
Maria love
Why we wait and hesitate
Maria love

We know what's needed
Can anybody see it?
Maria love
