Coyote Song - Bright Eyes

Loving you is easy

I can do it in my sleep

I dream of you so often

It’s like you never leave

But you’re gone below the border

With a nightmare in between

I’m sending the coyote

To bring you back to me Where there’s a fancy hotel waiting

In south San Gabriel

Where the movie madams sunbathe

The playboys para-sail

And I know you think I’m crazy

But most people they can tell

So I’ll meet you there tomorrow

If I can have you to myself

So at the time I tried to occupy

Since you’ve been away

It’s hard to transfer stars to calling cards

I can’t see your poker face

While your voice is sounding so brave

Our Lady Guadalupe

In plaster on the wall

Joseph Smith saw Jesus in America

Well I don’t know much about it It doesn’t matter much at all

Just keep your head down lady

As you travel through the dark

And if I should seem distracted

By the color of the sky

As a copper wire sunset plays a lullaby

It’s just to know they’ve stolen

Another day from you and I It gets me feeling low down

When the moon is fulling high

Been fake

We’re out to take

A place that’s safe

That you might wait a day

A lonesome broken dawn

That finally comes

Just as I was losing faith

You keep every promise you make

Loving you is easy

I can do it in my sleep

I dream of you so often

It’s like you never leave

But you’re gone below the border

With a nightmare in between

So I’m sending the coyote

To bring you back to me Yes I’m sending the coyote

To bring you back to me
