Lyrics and translation
Original
Giving up easy, calling it quits.
A feeling, no, I know it is what it is. Yeah, it is what it is.
West of Ohio, somewhere only we know.
Planted trees down the trail in the ground that night.
Do you remember what it was like?
I said, "Baby, won't you come along? Don't wanna leave you alone.
I'll find somewhere along the way to keep us out of the cold. "
It's out of nowhere, I know it ain't fair and no, I don't expect you to go. So if you need me, know that I'll be driving down to Mexico.
If you need me on a dime, I'm south down in Mexico.
Coming down southbound, there's a feeling on the air now.
Honey, don't worry about me, I'm feeling just right now.
Come on, don't wallow.
Ain't easy on the windy road.
Yeah, I need in my bed, it's a long night ahead and I'm driving like I'm driving to you.
I told you that, if I ever leave, I would let you know.
Oh, and now I've done left, the hardest part was letting you go.
As I bid you farewell, I'm stopping myself from falling, from falling apart. As I make way to the keys of my heart down in Mexico.
Oh, I'm finding the keys to my heart down in Mexico.
Am I stopping us from falling apart? Oh, hell if I know.
But I'm finding the keys to my heart down in Mexico.
West of Ohio, darling, when the trees grow.
One day, I hope and I pray that you know
I'm gonna find my way home.
