Cæcilie Norby - Hearts and Bones lyrics
[Cæcilie Norby - Hearts and Bones lyrics]
One and one half wandering Jews
Free to wander wherever they choose
Are travelling together
In Sangre de Cristo, the
Blood of Christ Mountains of New Mexico
On the last leg of the journey
They started a long time ago
The arc of a love affair
Rainbows in the high desert air
Mountain passes slipping 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 lightning shaking till it moans
Hearts and bones, yeah hearts and bones
Hearts and bones
And whoa whoa 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 nothin' about
Nothin' about no Mexico and tell me why
Why won't you love me for who I am
Where I am
He said: "'Cause that's not the
Way the world is baby
This is how I love you, baby
This is how I love you, baby"
One and one half wandering Jews
Return to their natural courses
To resume old acquaintances
Step out occasionally
Speculate who's been damaged the most
Easy time will determine
If these consolations will be their reward
The arc of a love affair
Waiting to be restored
You take two bodies and twirl them into one
Hearts and bones, yeah yeah hearts and bones
Hearts and bones
Free to wander wherever they choose
Are travelling together
In Sangre de Cristo, the
Blood of Christ Mountains of New Mexico
On the last leg of the journey
They started a long time ago
The arc of a love affair
Rainbows in the high desert air
Mountain passes slipping 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 lightning shaking till it moans
Hearts and bones, yeah hearts and bones
Hearts and bones
And whoa whoa 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 nothin' about
Nothin' about no Mexico and tell me why
Why won't you love me for who I am
Where I am
He said: "'Cause that's not the

This is how I love you, baby
This is how I love you, baby"

You take two bodies and twirl them into one
Hearts and bones, yeah yeah hearts and bones
Hearts and bones
