One and one-half wandering jews   Free to wander wherever they choose   Are travelling together   In the sangre de cristo   The blood of christ mountains   Of new mexico   On the last leg of the journey   They started a long time ago   The arc of a love affair   Rainbows in the high desert air   Mountain passes slipping into stones   Hearts and bones   Hearts and bones   Hearts and bones   Thinking back to the season before   Looking back through the cracks in the door   Two people were married   The act was outrageous   The bride was contagious   She burned like a bride   These events may have had some effect   On the man with the girl by his side   The arc of a love affair   His hands rolling down her hair   Love like lightning shaking till it moans   Hearts and bones   Hearts and bones   Hearts and bones   And whoa whoa whoa   She said why?    Why don't we drive through the night   And we'll wake up down in mexico   Oh i   I don't know nothin' about nothin'   About mexico   And tell me why   Why won't you love me   For who I am   Where I am   He said:   'cause that's not the way the world is baby   This is how I love you, baby   This is how I love you, baby   One and one-half wandering jews   Returned to their natural coasts   To resume old acquaintances   Step out occasionally   And speculate who had been damaged the most   Easy time will determine if these consolations   Will be their reward   The arc of a love affair   Waiting to be restored   You take two bodies and you twirl them into one   Their hearts and their bones   And they won't come undone   Hearts and bones   Hearts and bones   Hearts and bones   Hearts and bones
