Calexico - Better and Better lyrics

rate me

There’s a letter she keeps inside, a list of everyone she knows

Behind her closed eyes that turn her in when it’s time to go

She’s heading north into the haze, raise the wire and they raise the rent

She’s walking the sun back home and in the night the moon is gone

Is it better? Is it better and better?

Is it better than staying home with nowhere to go?

I’ve seen your face out on the plains drifting all alone

Draw my finger in the dirt and down another blue road

She’s in Kansas and Alabam’, Idaho and the Carolines

Know I’ve seen her before can’t you recognize those hands

Is it better? Is it better and better?

Is it better than staying back home?

Is it better? Is it better and better?

Is it better with nowhere else to go?
