Wish You Well

(album: Cold Beer Conversation - 2015)

There's a tangerine sunset
Reflecting off the water
Reflecting off this bottle in my hand
When I get to the bottom of it
I got five more in that bucket
To get me free as can be like the breeze off the sugar sand

I was a shadow of myself
Back on the mainland when you left
Out here, I can clear my mind and the wind can fill my sails
One more Tecate and I'll be
Closer to where I need to be
Six Mexican beers between wish you were here and wish you well

You know these dark-haired senoritas
They sure know how to treat ya
Ain't sure what they're saying but I'm hanging on every word
With every sip I get a little bit closer
To forgetting and getting over
That memory that followed me down here to heaven on earth

I was a shadow of myself
Back on the mainland when you left
Out here, I can clear my mind and the wind can fill my sails
One more Tecate and I'll be
Closer to where I need to be
Four Mexican beers between wish you were here and wish you well

When I crossed the border, I told myself
I'd say goodbye in Cozumel
Two Mexican beers between wish you were here and wish you well
Yeah, I wish you well
