lyrics

Esteban is a man full of dreams
He gazes out eating his rice and beans...
Esteban has a plan, this time it has to work
He won't go home till he's worked out the quirks
He says, "It all comes down to this...the memories of the smokey breeze.
I choke up on them...oh, but for those swayin' trees."

Esteban knows all about the world
And from his mouth outpours a string of pearls
Esteban talks about how much he loves his wife
How everyday it's her that saves his life
He says, "every time I get close, she cuts me down and hides the rope.
I love her more than she'll ever know
And one day soon I'll tell her so
But, oh those mighty trees are swayin'...
I'm captive to that breeze, just sayin...."
