Lyrics and translation Imaginary Cities - Mexico

Mexico

I had a match, but he had a lighter
I had a flame, but she had a fire
I was bright, but he was much brighter
I was high, but she was the sky
Oh baby, I was bound for Mexico
Oh baby, I was bound to let you go
(Oh)
I don't know much about Cinco de Mayo
I'm never sure what it's all about
But I say I want you, and you don't believe me
You say you want me, but I've got my doubts
Oh baby, I was bound for Mexico
Oh baby, I was bound to let you go
(Oh)
I had a match, but s/he had a lighter
I had a flame, but s/he had a fire
I was bright, but s/he was much brighter
I was high, but s/he was the sky
Oh baby I was bound for Mexico
Oh baby I was bound to let you go
(Oh)

Mexique

J'avais une allumette, mais tu avais un briquet
J'avais une flamme, mais tu avais un feu
J'étais brillant, mais tu étais bien plus brillant
J'étais haut, mais tu étais le ciel
Oh bébé, j'étais destiné au Mexique
Oh bébé, j'étais destiné à te laisser partir
(Oh)
Je ne connais pas grand chose à propos du Cinq Mai
Je ne suis jamais sûr de ce que c'est vraiment
Mais je dis que je te veux, et tu ne me crois pas
Tu dis que tu me veux, mais j'ai des doutes
Oh bébé, j'étais destiné au Mexique
Oh bébé, j'étais destiné à te laisser partir
(Oh)
J'avais une allumette, mais tu avais un briquet
J'avais une flamme, mais tu avais un feu
J'étais brillant, mais tu étais bien plus brillant
J'étais haut, mais tu étais le ciel
Oh bébé, j'étais destiné au Mexique
Oh bébé, j'étais destiné à te laisser partir
(Oh)
