lyrics

Tucson had this mountain range
tattooed on its horizon
long before it was old enough
to know any better

passing through I stopped beacause I was thirsty
I looked up and saw the Catalina mountains
and the mountains made me stay

sure New Orleans still stays up late
despite the wind, despite the rain
I miss her and she moves to ancient tongues in ancient ways

Austin I'll make love to you it's true,
my thumbs, and elbows, adam's apple all grow funny
I'm so young please pretend
that you could love me someday,
since you're looking at me anyway;
any way you look at me, just keep looking,
that's okay

Tucson, while you wait for rain remember
that we'll love you when we're gone,
and remember all the funny things we do
when we love, when we are young
aren't so funny, they're just things that we'll remember
in our elbows, in our thumbs, and adams apples
every time that we're alone
