Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ik weet nog precies hoe het met ons begon
De zon zakte weg achter de horizon
Romantiek en liefde om me heen
en passie toen de maan verscheen

Santa Maria, de zon en de zee
Santa Maria, ik ga met je mee
Santa Maria, je straalt als je lacht

Santa Maria, prinses van de nacht

Langs witte stranden neem jij me weer mee
De zon en de golven van jou blauwe zee
Jij laat me leven, je brengt me geluk
M’n liefde voor jou kan niet meer stuk

Santa Maria, de zon en de zee
Santa Maria, ik ga met je mee
Santa Maria, je straalt als je lacht
Santa Maria, prinses van de nacht

Santa Maria, de zon en de zee
Santa Maria, ik ga met je mee
Santa Maria, je straalt als je lacht
Santa Maria, prinses van de nacht

Santa Maria, de zon en de zee
Santa Maria, ik ga met je mee

Santa Maria, je straalt als je lacht
Santa Maria, prinses van de nacht...
