Mexican Wind

[Verse 1: Jann Browne]
This is my third night under bright shooting stars
I have crossed into Mexico, maybe that's where you are
You told me you'd come here if our love should end
Eighty miles past the border on the Mexican wind

[Verse 2: Jann Browne]
So I followed the dusty roads into Flores Magon
And they said you had left there for Aquiles Serdan
[Jann Browne & Emmylou Harris]
You told me you'd come here if our love should end
Eighty miles past the border on the Mexican wind

[Chorus: Jann Browne & Emmylou Harris]
There's a place in the desert
Where we let it begin
We would dance close together
All the candles would dim
In a quiet cantina
[Jann Browne]
With sweet mandolins
As they'd serenade softly
[Jann & Emmylou]
On the Mexican wind

[Verse 3: Jann Browne]
My life, it seems to slow down the further I go
Into the bare heart of old Mexico
[Jann & Emmylou]
Still I keep searching for someone who once let me in
[Jann Browne]
But somehow I lost him to the Mexican wind

[Chorus: Jann & Emmylou]
There's a place in the desert
Where we let it begin
We would dance close together
All the candles would dim
In a quiet cantina
[Jann]
With sweet mandolins
As they'd serenade softly
[Jann & Emmylou]
On the Mexican wind
