Calexico

Fade

Calexico


No one knows where the night can go 
Except for the few lovers 
Entangled and torn from the hour 
The stars now are starting to leave 
A silent moon begins to weep 
And the lovers fall further and further 
Into the dark and deep 
Come morning, without warning 
The absence of love's embrace 
Like winter's light, it creeps on in 
And the moon's tears fade 
He starts the car and is driving away 
Hearing her voice and tasting their last kiss 
That sent them spinning and racing 
The moon's glow lights the way 
Otherwordly underwater dreamscape 
Till a semi's headlights invade 
Come morning, without warning 
The absence of love's embrace 
Like winter's light, it creeps on in 
And the moon's sullen glow is fading 
The glow is fading 
The glow is fading 
Soul escaping 
Stars are leaving, the moon is weeping 
Soul escaping 
Soul escaping 
Racing through the night... 
The glow is fading 
The glow is fading
