Ghost of a River
Calexico

Dig my hands into the dirt

Ghost of a riverbed

Find a timepiece from

The water commissioner

In a whole town washed up and dead


Climbing in a crawlspace

Climb to survive

Climbing into our vehicles

Through the tunnel to the other side


I remember when we'd stand

With our feet at the river's edge

Wondering where the current

Would take us if we leapt



I remember when we'd stand

With our feet at the water's edge

Wondering where the current

Would take us if we leapt


Now I can't stop thinking

About how she used to smile

Standing by that tree

Near the ghost of the river

And where we said our last goodbye

Our last goodbye

Our last goodbye
