Buicks on the old road
East out of Guantanamo
The past is pouring out now
Your face is in the rear view
Burnt December days
The lives that could've been
All dissolving into ether
And now it's all infra
Or is it just some older order
Wake up
Radio crackle
Celia Cruz and the old crooners
A pocketful of pesos
A tattered book of Rilke
A penny for an answer
Some mercy for a sinner
Everything is scattered now
We're running on and on
Towards the light
Out to seek our own sun
While there's still time
But whatever sky you're under
You'll always be my lover
The way our figures used to fit together
In the winter
But forms that fit together fall apart
And that'll break your heart
But now it's just the mighty cordillera
Under black heavens
Midnight in Cartagena
We were here together
But now it's all infra
So bring it back to the breath
We love and we leave
And we get left
Yet we live on to love again
Just let me sleep til the dawn
And I'll be back here
Watching the leaves turn green as the seasons change
Seasons change, mad things rearrange
Walking down the primrose road to everything and nothing
Seasons change, mad things rearrange
Walking down the primrose road to everything and nothing
Seasons change, mad things rearrange
Walking down the primrose road to everything and nothing
Seasons change, mad things rearrange
Walking down the primrose road to everything and nothing
And if I'm alone...
And if I'm alone...
And if I'm alone...
And if I'm alone...
Oh swallow me black night
Spit me out as stars when the moon's out of sight
The zodiac's the only place where we still survive
That's where we are dead and gone but burning bright
Oh swallow me black night
Spit me out as stars
Spit me out as stars
Spit me out as stars
The sky's the only place where we still survive
But we're dead and gone
Oh swallow me black night
Spit me out as stars when the moon's out of sight
Spit me out as stars baby, yeah
I wanna be where the lights shine
Oh swallow me black night
Spit me out as stars when the moon's out of sight
Spit me out as stars baby, yeah
I wanna be where the lights shine
