The Staves - Mexico Lyrics

The Staves Lyrics

"Mexico"

Take it back or let me go
It's better if I tell you so
I hurt you once before and I'll do it again

Everyone I know is gone and I don't even know myself
I'm saving up to take a trip to Mexico
I heard it's the place to go
I want to see the colours of another sky

Carry me home on your shoulders
Lower me onto my bed
Show me the night that I dreamed about before

Lover you may cause me tears
Drag me through the best of years
You'll never know any of the songs I wrote
Older than a year or two, but I love you so

Oh, carry me home on your shoulders
Lower me onto my bed
Show me the night that I dreamed about before

Carry me home on your shoulders
Lower me onto my bed
Show me the night that I dreamed about before

Lover you may cause me tears
Drag me through the best of years
But I love you so
