I no longer notice if you're wearing perfume I quit smoking girl you never even knew And the road is full of young and restless people And they're full of this spirit to move It's a habit for us to be together We sat and watched the deadly shadows grow Every day last year I left for California This is my year for Mexico [ guitar - trumpet ] Your back is turned to me while you are reading I close my eyes while I pretent to doss From the road I hear the sound of passing traffic Some of them are bound for Mexico It's a habit for us to be together... This is my year for Mexico
