Calexico
Spokes



started talking to a couple of wedded strangers
sitting down on motorcycles we passed on the highway
stepped into the service-station
took a piss, got water, bought fuel, to ride

blood is flowing and mountains are blurring
there is something stirring way down inside
barely know my homebase home
seems i'm rarely there for any shard of time

the neighborhood is the same
they all remember my name
holding no reservations
the newness is wearing in
check my eyes to see if they have spokes
see if they are moving
see if they have spokes
see if there is somewhere else to ride

barely know my airbase home
seems i'm rarely there for any shard of time
before i ride
