Maria Elena Lyrics

There's a cottage in the village in the country I have learned to love And every night the curfew rings And people sing their prayers to heaven above In the cottage there lives a girl Who's crying for she can see Soldiers marching away to war They're fighting to be free Maria Elena I'm going away to war I'm going to fight I may not be back again Maria Elena I love you forever more Please say it's alright you'll stay by my side 'till dawn I remember moonlit nights And dancing in the streets 'till break of day Yes I remember how it was No one would separate us come what may Like a dream it dissolves away And morning will soon be here Revolution has come our way I'm warning you now dear (2x fading on 2nd) Maria Elena I'm going away to war I'm going to fight I may not be back again Maria Elena I love you forever more Please say it's alright you'll stay by my side 'till dawn
