I start drowning your memory with wine
Then I moved on to shots with salt n lime
Liquor’s keeping me far from thinking
In the tequila sunrises I keep drinking

Ooh I only think of you a little after sunset
About times at Doc’s and how we first met
I only miss you when the sun goes down
But I’m still out, around, and on the town

I start drowning your memory with wine
Then I moved on to shots with salt n lime
Liquor’s keeping me far from thinking
In the tequila sunrises I keep drinking

Sky hue reminds me of our first night together
A beautiful morning sunrise with cold whether
I never realized you would’ve been mine
Long after last call, way past closing time

I start drowning your memory with wine
Then I moved on to shots with salt n lime
Liquor’s keeping me far from thinking
In the tequila sunrises I keep drinking

Maybe I’ve had one to many
perhaps just a few too plenty
Your voice echoes in my ear
Oh I yearn to hold you near

I start drowning your memory with wine
Then I moved on to shots with salt n lime
Liquor’s keeping me far from thinking
In the tequila sunrises I keep drinking
