Zihuatanejo

Endless nights of wandering through the streets
A sea of gently flowing clouds moving in
On La Ropa beach the dogs greet the sunrise
And touristas share cervasas with the sunsets

But in Ixtapa the buildings reach for the sky
And everything gets so cleanly swept away
You can escape all that at Los Polos Loco
Where the children play under the tables
And sometimes a baby cries

Don't let them take you Zihuatenejo
Don't let it ruin you Zihuatenejo
Keep those horizons low
Pretty little town in Mexico
Keep singing your songs to the sea

Sometimes to move ahead is not quite what it seems
The older ways will never ever lose their charm
A time and place where the buildings aren't quite so high
And you don't know the language
But the faces might smile for you

Nearby Ixtapa the places have many stars
The time share hombres all want to whisk you away
You can have it all exactly the way it is at home
The music is never loud
And Nothing caliente

Don't let them take you Zihuatenejo
Don't let it ruin you Zihuatenejo
Keep those horizons low
Bonita ciudad en Mexico
Keep singing your songs to the sea
