Perhaps I’ve never tried that hard to see

A palm tree swinging lazy in the breeze

Perhaps I looked away too many times

Just ignoring all the signs

Riding high on a temporary vibe

Life and love are messy most of the time



Practical minds breeding practical lives

Leave it all behind

The ocean breeze, the palm trees, and the sunshine

Excuses that a pair of eyes can’t hide

Perhaps this paradise is my decline

Riding high on a temporary vibe

Life and love are messy most of the time

If we were sober, we would know that this is real

Beyond a feeling, and I’d never let you go

If we were sober, we would know that this is real

Beyond a feel, I should have never let you go

Down in Mexico



We could be drinkin cheap tequila en the playa esquinita

And it sure is good to see the sea again

We could be drinking cheap tequila en the playa esquinita

And it sure is good to see the sea again



We both know what this could be or pretend that it’s not happening

Float forever, take a trip with me

Live forever in a postcard where it lives and breathes in blue and green

And roaring up a gentle breeze,

We’re riding high on a temporary vibe,

Life and love are messy most of the time

If we were sober, we would know that this is real

Beyond a feeling, and I’d never let you go

If we were sober, we would know that this is real

Beyond a feel, I should have never let you go

Down in mexico



We could be drinking cheap tequila en the playa esquinita

And it sure is good to see the sea again

We should be drinking margaritas in a foreign buena vista

And it sure is good to see you once again
