Jann Browne - Mexican Wind lyrics

rate me

(Jann Browne - Pat Gallagher - Roger Stebner)

This is my third night

Under bright shooting stars

I have crossed into Mexico

Maybe that's where you are

You told me you'd come here

If our love should end

Eighty miles past the border

On the Mexican wind.

So I followed the dusty roads

Into Flores Magon

And they said you had left there

For Aquiles Serdan

You told me you'd come here

If our love should end

Eighty miles past the border

On the Mexican wind.

There's a place in the desert

Where we let it begin

We would dance close together

As the candles would dim

In a quiet cantina

With sweet mandolins

As they'd serenade softly

On the Mexican wind.

--- Instrumental ---

My life seems to slow down

The further I go

Into the bare heart

Of old Mexico

Still I keep searching for someone

Who once let me in

But somehow I lost him

To the Mexican wind.

There's a place in the desert

Where we let it begin

We would dance close together

As the candles would dim

In a quiet cantina

With sweet mandolins

As they'd serenade softly

On the Mexican wind.

Eighty miles past the border

On the Mexican wind...
