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



Chorus

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



Chorus



I ain't learned much

But I learned that love is all

And I learned to count

To ten en español

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



Chorus
