Lost Inside - Calexico

There are roads that guide you like some old familiar soul

Following the feeling as it takes her to coast

Memories of her childhood buried underground

Searching for the bones of the stories never found

Of the stories never found

Lost inside

Dreaming of the crossing

The diaries well kept

Pull on the threads

In the blankets where she slept in your arms

Floating in the shallows

With the one you miss the most

Footprints in the sand

From your dancing with a ghost

You’re dancing with a ghost

Dancing with a ghost

A bible with a family tree

Broken at the spine

A symphony of questions

Suspended out of time

Still she makes her way

From the mountain to the sea

Train of tangled thoughts

Blows like the fallen leaves

Like the fallen leaves

Lost inside

Waiting for her father

Waiting on a friend

Waiting for forgiveness

From the other end

In your arms

Holding all the letters

From the attic chest

Tracing the words

He whispered as he left

Whispered as he left

Whispered as he left

Lost inside

Driving down the coastline

Through the rain alone

«Blackbird» on the radio

Sings someone

In your eyes

Floating in the shadows

With the one you miss the most

Footprints in the sand

From your dancing with a ghost

Dancing with a ghost

Dancing with a ghost

Dancing with a ghost

You’re just dancing…

You’re just dancing with a ghost
