10 Years In Mexico

Tequila smile and a mango kiss
They've never seen rain quite like this
Give the storm a name, watch her blow
She's outside with a sweet surprise
You can't stop her when her waters rise
Open up the door, let her flow

Ten Years in Mexico
Watch them come and I watch them go
Where the time went I don't know
Life and death, joy and tears
Ten Years In Mexico

I still remember every step so well
Through the graveyard to the cheap hotel
Knowing any moment, I might fall
Still a notion in senora's eyes
She sees the ocean, and the dragon flies
From the hacienda, hear her call

Ten Years in Mexico
Watch them come and I watch them go
Where the time went I don't know
Life and death, joy and tears
Ten Years
I ain't learned much
But I learned, that love is all
And I learned to count to ten, en espanno

Last night I dreamed of ice and sleet
I dreamed of sidewalks underneath my feet
Woke to find my suitcase, by the door
I ask the mountains and the Cortez Sea
How did she come to love a fool like me
But I don't really need the answer, any more

Ten Years in Mexico
Watch them come and I watch them go
Where the time went I don't know
Life and death, joy and tears
Ten Years, In Mexico, Mexico
