A Number That Was Never Mine

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Funny how the world can turn On a single dialed line A number that was never mine But somehow led to you Hours slipped through into dawn Two strangers talking on And I felt something coming true [Chorus] And oh, what a beautiful sound The honest way you speak your mind The passion in your voice, unwound A light I never thought I'd find So here's my hope, my quiet prayer That peace will meet you where you are Maria, you're still my guiding star [Verse 2] I remember every word The fire in what you'd say No holding back, no gentle sway Just truth from your own heart I confess I moved too fast I let my longing cast A shadow that pulled us apart [Chorus] And oh, what a beautiful sound The honest way you speak your mind The passion in your voice, unwound A light I never thought I'd find So here's my hope, my quiet prayer That peace will meet you where you are Maria, you're still my guiding star [Bridge] If I asked too much, forgive me Let the old regrets fly free No matter how the story ends You're an angel sent to me [Verse 3] So I'll send this song of joy No strings, no need to stay Just gratitude to light your way And love that asks for nothing more I hope your days are kind I hope your heart finds The peace it's always been longing for [Chorus] And oh, what a beautiful sound The honest way you speak your mind The passion in your voice, unwound A light I never thought I'd find So here's my hope, my quiet prayer That peace will meet you where you are Maria, you're still my guiding star [Outro] Maria, wherever you go May love and mercy see you through You're still my angel, that much is true
