Lyrics
Alone in this seedy motel room
Night falls, I can't stop thinking about you
I wait in vain for him
But the morning comes too soon
I long for the touch of your hand
My mind spins like the ceiling fan
So cold this bed tonight
Dust blows in hot desert sand
CHORUS
Under the moon, the nights we shared together
The Mexican Moon, I thought love would last forever
The moon, The Mexican Moon
A kiss, for one I'd give it all
Forget, and let my last teardrop fall
The pain, too much to bear
Stare at the clock on the wall
Music played, palm trees swayed
We made love together
Stars shined, lips on mine
I thought he'd love me forever
My tears mix with the sweat on my brow
This hell, stuck in the Mexican border-town
The night, the moon, his eyes
The memories only bring me down
