eric andersen - bay of mexico lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve been thinkin’ ’bout a place i once knew well
’bout a girl i left across yonder bay
but i promise you one thing, my pretty darlin’
i know i’ll see you on another day
[chorus]
i may meet you on a mountain city
or on the plains where the north wind blows
i may see you by the southern waters
or by the bay of mexico
[verse 2]
now, the days are gettin’ dark and chilly
the river’s frozen, the meadows wrapped in snow
my heart is longin’ for your singin’ breezes
down where the golden rivers flow
[chorus]
so i may meet you on a mountain city
or on the plains where the north wind blows
i may see you by the southern watеrs
or by the bay of mexico
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
now, you may think i’m only talkin’
you may think i’m only gonna break your hеart
but i know where the grass is growin’
one true love may finally get its start
[chorus]
so i may meet you on a mountain city
or on the plains where the north wind blows
i may see you by the southern waters
or by the bay of mexico
[verse 4]
now, i think i’m headin’ for greener pastures
my train is travelin’ on a straighter road
i think i’m learnin’ things i’ve never learned before
and a hundred other things i never knowed
[chorus]
so i may meet you on a mountain city
or on the plains where the north wind blows
i may see you by the southern waters
or by the bay of mexico
