Calexico Bisbee Blue lyrics

When you can't find the hours
Days keep on slippin' through
Avenues under construction
Blockin' out your sky blues

Buried beneath the letters
Bills and the junk in the mail
Finding the strain to your heart
From the troubles down the trail

No sign of your old haunts here
Gone with the copper crews
Veins mined in vein remind you
Choices we choose to lose

New cities keep on sprawling
Old towns falling too
Rainin' a river of color
And it's flowin' bisbee blue
Straight to you bisbee blue


Some say, well, this way's
The only one that's true

Bring me back bisbee blue
Bring me back

Oh, these days, seem dark
Darkest I've seen
Darlin', you send me
Through the hours

Days keep on siftin' through
Chippin' away to remember
Days with you bisbee blue
Shinin' like bisbee blue
Bring me back bisbee blue
