Mendocino

(album: Horizon - 1990)

In a hot and sultry summer, on my way to Mendocino
Well, I got my lucky number, when I drank a capuccino
There she was and I thought maybe she is a hitch-hike baby
And before I found her out, she was riding next to me
But soon the night was falling
And I took her out to dance

Oh, I fell in love in Mendocino
In the Californian sun
Oh, I lost my heart in Mendocino
Days of love and having fun
Memories of you, don't know what to do
Change your mind and come back to me

I was only seventeen still young and rather giddy
Not so silly no, nor green, no not a chicka-biddy
Took a chance but I was shaking, oh boy, my heart was breaking
Then I pulled myself together, when he said: come with me
But soon the night was falling
And he took me out to dance

Oh, I fell in love in Mendocino
In the Californian sun
Oh, I lost my heart in Mendocino
Days of love and having fun
Memories of you, don't know what to do
Change your mind and come back to me

Oh, I fell in love in Mendocino
In the Californian sun
Oh, I lost my heart in Mendocino
Days of love and having fun
Memories of you, don't know what to do
Change your mind and come back to me
