Monterrey

(album: Waiting On Forever - 1998)

Packed some clothes and I left town
A few days just to cool it down
Headed south trying to get away

I met a girl who stole my heart
Head over heels right from the start
For this girl from Monterrey

It was hard to pull away
Because my heart was meant to stay
But I was on my way
And I know it's wrong that she was right
Because she's down somewhere tonight
In Monterrey

With her eyes clear and brown
She could speak without a sound
The kind of love that a thousand words can't sing

She drew the line between good and bad
She was all that I never had
This girl from Monterrey

It was hard to pull away
Cause my heart was meant to stay
But I was on my way
And I know its wrong that she was right
Because she's down somewhere tonight
In Monterrey

And she had that kind of love
To rearrange the stars above
She'd make the devil bow to pray
And sometimes late at night
I can't decide if I was right
To ever leave Monterrey

Cause it was hard to pull away
Cause my heart was meant to stay
But I was on my way
And I know its wrong that she was right
Because she's down somewhere tonight
In Monterrey

Down in Monterrey
(Oh Monterrey)
(Oh Monterrey)
In Monterrey
(Oh Monterrey)
(In Monterrey)
