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 espanol
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
