El Paso Song Lyrics
El Paso by Calexico El Paso on the late-night line
Rolling dice and killing time
Desert hills dark as the city lights shine
Mary at the window, crying love is blind
Love is blind
Jupiter frozen on a laptop screen
You said you never could say what you mean
Arms tattooed like a magazine
Telling the world all the angels you've seen
All the angels you've seen
And we're fighting (And we're fighting)
And we're finding (And we're finding)
And we're fighting (And we're fighting)
And we're finding (And we're finding)
On the other side of the Rio Grande
Your daddy used to sing in your uncle's band
Mmm, you used to dance in the dust and sand
First with your mama, then a gun in your hand
Fighting for a border that's hard to understand
And harder to find than the truth in this land
Love is blind, my love is blind
Crying love is blind
Oh Mary at the window
My love is blind
Crying love is blind
