Alejandro Escovedo - Sacramento and Polk Lyrics




The moon is brighter than the sun

My shadow is longer at night as I drive your way

The trees hang from the branches

The moon hangs from the sky

Waters lies flat in the gutter

While a rose climbs up the staircase

And falls upon the landing

And falls upon the landing

And as I wonder where you are

I'm so lonesome I could cry



She really is breathtaking as she lies there softly sleeping

Undisturbed, and I wish,

And I wish my breath, my voice, my touch

Could awaken her

Yeah, awaken her again

I'm under a spell her name

Oh, I spell her name

I'm under a spell her name



There really is no reason fro the way that I am feeling

It could've been the weather

Or something less than that

I need to shed this old skin for something that's much lighter

Maybe different colors

Maybe not so tight

I'm under a spell her name

Oh, I spell her name

I'm under a spell her name



It singes and it burns like a delicate veil

The pressure of her kiss

Feels like it's all over now

I never could jump from high enough

I never could jump from high enough

A third story jump ain't high enough

It's just a mess on Market St.

I'm under a spell her name

Oh, I spell her name

I'm under a spell her name



Palo Alto Hotel at Sacramento and Polk

The neighbors spend their days

Washing their socks and staring out the windows

In a thorazine haze

They don't know what to do with their hands

They vaguely remember some plans

But that was so long ago

I'm under a spell her name

Oh, I spell her name

I'm under a spell her name
