First light in Mendoza,
I felt a little closer,
When I called you on a telephone card,
I was danced off my feet,
I had nowhere to sleep,
The pisco had left me off guard.

And the tears fell like rain,
Rolling across the plain,
Wind calling your name,
In the Plaza Independencia,
At the sunrise you were there,
In the breeze I swear,
I could see your hair,
Floating across the square.

I was lost with the lingo,
Well, call me a gringo,
Sin encanto por señoritas,
The quiet of dawn,
Had me feeling forlorn,
Somewhere they were playing guitars.

And the tears fell like rain,
Rolling across the plain,
Wind calling your name,
In the Plaza Independencia,
At the sunrise you were there,
In the breeze I swear,
I could see your hair,
Floating across the square.

You bring me coffee every morning while I lay in bed,
You read the paper, take a shower, it’s the same every day,
Never changes,
But I love our little ways.

I make you toast the way you like without the edges on,
You go to work but call me straight away 'cause you already miss home,
And our little world,
And all our little ways.

You,
Are the reason that I smile,
The good thing in my life,
You,
You may not ever see,
Just what you mean to me.

Wanna spend the rest of my life,
Holding your hand, stood by your side,
Wanna be the girl on your arm,
Your lucky charm, the reason you believe,
In happy endings, with your best friend,
Like a fairy tale.

Wanna be your first, wanna be your last,
Wanna be your everything,
Wanna see how life turns out,
The good the bad and all that’s in between,
Just wanna love you for the rest of my days,
Wanna share my life and all our little ways.

You stroke my hair when I lay over you and watch TV,
I rub your shoulders when you're stressed, I try to take your cares away,
We've got each other and all our little ways.

You,
Are the reason that I smile,
The good thing in my life,
You,
You may not ever see,
Just what you mean to me.

Wanna spend the rest of my life,
Holding your hand, stood by your side,
Wanna be the girl on your arm,
Your lucky charm, the reason you believe,
In happy endings, with your best friend,
Like a fairy tale.

Wanna be your first, wanna be your last,
Wanna be your everything,
Wanna see how life turns out,
The good the bad and all that’s in between,
Just wanna love you for the rest of my days,
Wanna share my life and all our little ways.

Everywhere I go,
And everything I do,
It’s like I've been looking,
Looking for you.

I didn't really know,
I didn't really care,
But it’s like you had all the answers,
The who, the when, the where.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained,
The adventure where everything changed,
The world had a way,
Of leading me straight to you.

Anywhere I go,
And anything I do,
Just doesn't come close to how I feel,
When I'm with you.

So I guess that in the end,
It was always meant to be,
I was made for you,
And you were made for me.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained,
The adventure where everything changed,
The world had a way,
Of leading me straight to you.
