The Ladder - Alejandro Escovedo

I’d climb a ladder just to see you

I have no eyes but I can feel

Two snakes entwine so I can be you

This ladder climbs from me to you

La Bufadora will explode soon

In liquid splendor sculptured trees

Amongst the oaks the shapes are shifting

A shift to meld you into me

Let’s sleep away the pain we suffer

The medicine is in our dreams

Fly away like Caracaras

This ladder climbs from me to you
