On a Road in Old Oaxaca
On a road in old Oaxaca
it is said that they met
in a land of Spanish lace and castanet
He looked in her face
fell deep in her eyes
and knew she was
Mexico's sweetest surprise
But this travel was booked
in the stars yes it's true
a date made long ago
but not overdue
He liked her smile
he loved her flair
we spoke of her eyes
now let's sing of her
long raven hair
And of her passion for Earth,
art and truth he became
increasingly aware
He trained hard as a runner
so he was sure to endure
to win the heart of the
One who sees
angels in fur
On a road in old Oaxaca
it is said that they met
in a land of Spanish lace
and castanet
He looked in her face
fell deep in her eyes
and knew she was
Mexico's sweetest surprise
Forged in the stars
of kismet it's true
a date made long ago
but not overdue
forjado en las estrellas de kismet es cierto
una fecha hecha hace mucho
tiempo pero no atrasada
when life dealt their hand
it was part of a plan.
Yes, it was more than a trip or just
someplace to go when these
two riders met on a road
in Old Mexico
