Maria Lopez Lyrics

Maria Lopez, you used to light the room

With a laugh so wild, like a rose in bloom

You danced through the streets like the queen of July

Now the mirror tells a story, it can't deny

Here's to you, Maria Lopez

The world spun fast, but you held your ground

Every wrinkle is a map of places you've been

And every line's a song the years have penned

The boys would whistle as you passed by the gate

But time's a thief that never hesitates

Your beauty's not gone, it's just changed its clothes

It hides in your eyes, where the fire still glows

Here's to you, Maria Lopez

The world spun fast, but you held your ground

Every wrinkle is a map of places you've been

And every line's a song the years have penned

They don't see the girl who climbed up the hill

With dreams so loud they could never sit still

But I see her there, she's still in your smile

It's just softer now, but it's been there a while

Here's to you, Maria Lopez

The years were heavy, but you stood tall

Every wrinkle's a tear that has dried in the sun

Every line's a reminder of battles won

Maria Lopez, the rose never died

It just grew roots deep on the inside

And when you laugh, I swear I still see

The girl you were, wild and free…
