Hearts and Bones

One and one half wanderin' jews

Free to wander wherever they choose

Are travelin' together

In the Sangre De Christo

The blood of Christ Mountains of New Mexico

On the last leg of a journey

They started long time ago

The arc of a love affair

Rainbows in the high desert air

Mountain passes, slippin' into stones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Thinking back to the season before

Looking back through the cracks in the door

Two people were married

The act was outrageous

The bride was contagious, she burned like a bride

These events may have had some effect

On the man with the girl by his side

The arc of a love affair

His hands rolling down her hair

Love like lighting shaking till it moans

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

And whoa, she said why?

Why don't we drive through the night

We'll wake up down in Mexico

Oh, I, I don't know no nothin' about nothin' about Mexico

And tell me why, why won't you love me for who I am, where I am?

He said, "'cause thats not the way the world is, baby (That's not the way the world is baby)

This is how I love you, baby (This is how I love you, baby)

This is how I love you, baby"

One and one half wanderin' jews

Returned to their natural coasts

To resume old acquaintances

And step out occasionally

And speculate who had been damaged the most

Easy time will determine if these consolations will be their reward

The arc of a love affair

Waitin' to be restored

You take two bodies and you twirl them into one

Their hearts and their bones

And they won't come undone

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones

Hearts and bones
