In a sleepy border town
When the sun was setting down
I was sitting in a cafe
Drinking of my wine
When I saw a dark hair beauty
Come slowly walk up to me
And waited for me to say the words I couldn't find
No rewind
How was I to know that if
I let the moment go
I wish I could get it back
No rewind
Ask for another chance
My lady love just left
Since the moment's passed
And moves on down the line

So the mariachis played
As I watched her walk away
I was reaching in my pocket
To pay at closing time
When it hit me that so cooly
She'd come right up and fool me
Gotten what she wanted
Taken every dime
No rewind
How was I to know that if
I let the moment go
I wish I could get it back
No rewind
Ask for another chance
My lady love just left
Since the moment's passed
And moves on down the line

Guess this only goes to show
that you can never know
What's moving down the line
Now I can still be found
In a sleepy border town
Working in that cafe
Down to closing time
No rewind
How was I to know that if
I let the moment go
I wish I could get it back
No rewind
Ask for another chance
My lady love just left
Since the moment's passed
And moves on down the line

Yeah

She moves on down the line

Moves on down the line.
