Hailey, It Happens - Cuernavaca Lyrics
She slipped through my fingersWith the sway of a tango dancer,Under the brilliant lights of the bayAnd it left me in such a stateTo watch all those ships depart,While we both put our swords awayI lowered this city to its grave,So that heaven could see me nowI kicked my legs, just off the docks,Whistling through the fuzzy hazeOn that blackened Chicago dayWith my lungs long past spent,I'd challenge even the fiercest wind,Like a thief on his knees, praying for a getawayAnd everybody knowsThat I've been growing oldSay “bon voyage” with a waveAnd everybody knows,That I've been growing oldI lowered this city to its grave
