Mexico - Beat Radio (Lyrics)

Below are the lyrics to "Mexico" by Beat Radio
*These lyrics were transcribed and hold no guarantee of accuracy

This morning, I woke up
I had a melody in mind
I felt like I should sing it
But I wouldn’t call it mine
Then I’ll make you coffee
Then I’ll make you plans
Then the song slips away like water through my hands

The last thing I remember is the silence taking hold
I’m in and out of dreams
I’m spinning way out of control
You gave me something beautiful
You gave me something true
I’d try to make it mine
But somehow I’m just not getting through

Dreams are just like melodies
Delicate simplicities
Fill them up with words
Drown them with philosophy
The dream I had was beautiful
I let it get away from me
I let it get away from me

I used to have designs
To make the whole world know my name
It’s too close to the heat
I watched it all go up in flames
You gave me something beautiful
You gave me something true
I’ll find a way to complicate it like I always do
Remember what I said
While we were down in Mexico
This dream we share is real
And we can never let it go

I know I’m getting older
I’m feeling like a ghost
The way I feel right now
I know I must be getting close
I must be getting close

Dreams are just like melodies
Delicate simplicities
Fill them up with words
Drown them with philosophy
The dream I had was beautiful
But I let it get away from me

I’m not the kind of man
To let it go so easily
