lyrics

MARFA

The day they closed the borders the sky was so serene
The smog was lifting over China, we were all in quarantine
And the future was secluded like a hermit in Nepal
And in proper Dali fashion clocks were melting off the television wall

And if you close your eyes it’s elsewhere and things are what they seem
It was snowing down in Marfa, we were in a fever dream
And we’d gone out to the limits to watch the famous lights
Float like disembodied faces on the swirling snow-globe night
When our talk was interrupted by the wailing of a train
It was snowing down in Marfa, I was in your arms again

And the world was under water and the borders open wide
There was calabash for breakfast and John Prine never died
And we pressed our Easter faces to the pixilated white
It was snowing down in Marfa, I was in your arms last night

And if you close your eyes it’s elsewhere and things are what they seem
You know it never snows in Marfa but you can’t argue with a dream
And I know I’m only drowning but the future’s open wide
It’s snowing down in Marfa and I never left your side
