He was a stranger and she was so young
Life couldn’t be any sweeter
One night of romance, she thought it was love
She didn’t know he would leave her
Cold was the light of the morning
When he sailed out to the sea
He told her Santa Maria goodbye
In the wind you can still hear her calling
Oceans of tears from her eyes
Santa Maria goodbye
He told her Santa Maria goodbye
And she promised she’d never forget him
Dreams of the heart never die
Santa Maria goodbye
Day after day and forever more
There at the harbor she’s waiting
Counting the ships as they sailed to the shore
Breathlessly anticipating
So many beautiful mem'ries
So many nights all alone
He told her Santa Maria goodbye
In the wind you can still hear her calling
Oceans of tears from her eyes
Santa Maria goodbye
(Instrumental)
He told her Santa Maria goodbye
In the wind you can still hear her calling
Oceans of tears from her eyes
Santa Maria goodbye
He told her Santa Maria goodbye
And she promised she’d never forget him
Dreams of the heart never die
Santa Maria goodbye…
