Then You Might See Songtext
von Calexico

Ladder of ladders
Houses and trees
Signs and crosses
Mamas on their knees

One little glass
He raised and shot
Poems in the light
Like it or not

Lava flow of memory
Making daydreams out of history
Almost threshold, almost free
If you wake me up now, don′t let me be

Days of glory, invented sea
Most things aren't like they′re meant to be
Blur and sand, oh, infinity
But helpless and hopeless never suited me


Lava flow of memory
Making daydreams out of history
Almost threshold, almost free
If you wake me up now, don't let me be

One hundred years, one hundred days
How small the world?
Depends on the place
Almost threshold, almost free
If you wake me up now, don't let me be
If you wake me up now, don′t let me be

A veil for the wind (a veil for the wind)
False, false moon (false, false moon)
Red, red shadows (red, red shadows)
Under the saloon

Paper waves (paper waves)
Slanted hours (slanted hours)
The earth itself (the earth itself)
She′s laughing in flowers

Lava flow of memory
Making daydreams out of history
Almost threshold, almost free
If you wake me up now, don't let me be


One hundred years, one hundred days
How small the world?
Depends on the place
Almost threshold, almost free
If you wake me up now, then you might see

Then you might see
Then you might see
Then you might see
