Esperanza
As far as men go I ain't no ace of spades
One-eyed-Jack or Joker's more my kind
And I've drank my share of whiskey and I killed my share of men
And I filled my share of women of the night
I could've been your hombre and you could've been my world
Been my senorita and my bride
And our lives would look so different, so beautiful and fair
Spending every moment by your side
I'm sorry Esperanza for the things I didn't say
The words better said I held onto
Not a day can slip away, my dear that I don't pray
My callus heart knows all my pain is due
I swore my life had found its way, I've done my wrong, I've been untrue
I'd give it up for one more night with you
Sometimes I think about you and how it used to be
Things we'd do, and places we would go
Then I remember I'm a bastard, and I left you there to rot
In that little town in Mexico
I'm sorry Esperanza for the things I didn't say
The words better said I held onto
Not a day can slip away, my dear that I don't pray
My callus heart knows all my pain is due
I swore my life had found its way, I've done my wrong, I've been untrue
I'd give it up for one more night with you
One-eyed-Jack or Joker's more my kind
And I've drank my share of whiskey and I killed my share of men
And I filled my share of women of the night
I could've been your hombre and you could've been my world
Been my senorita and my bride
And our lives would look so different, so beautiful and fair
Spending every moment by your side
I'm sorry Esperanza for the things I didn't say
The words better said I held onto
Not a day can slip away, my dear that I don't pray
My callus heart knows all my pain is due
I swore my life had found its way, I've done my wrong, I've been untrue
I'd give it up for one more night with you
Sometimes I think about you and how it used to be
Things we'd do, and places we would go
Then I remember I'm a bastard, and I left you there to rot
In that little town in Mexico
I'm sorry Esperanza for the things I didn't say
The words better said I held onto
Not a day can slip away, my dear that I don't pray
My callus heart knows all my pain is due
I swore my life had found its way, I've done my wrong, I've been untrue
I'd give it up for one more night with you
