Lyrics
You showed me the way
Just had to watch such style and grace
The silence made the day, so hard to face
Step stuttered your way
You know you wowed them endlessly
A legend you became
But time would see you fall & fade away
Tequila Rose
Somethin about you drives 'em wild
Nobody knows
No one can see what's deep inside of you
You Can't tame a rose
She'll steal your heart
Own all your fantasies
Reveals your darkest desires, then bring you to your knees
You try to love her
too much to hate
Once she gets you
it's too late
Tequila Rose
Somethin about you drives 'em wild
Nobody knows
No one can see what's deep inside of you
Time after time, day after day, I'm gonna pray for you try to take your blues away
I wanna take, you'll wanna wait for me, gonna take your blues, take all your blues away
