San Cristóbal (Full Band Version)

I have not been writing that many new songs

How I wish I could stay longer, how I wish I'd never gone

And you have not been writing me as often as I wish

And sometimes I think I left you just to see if I'd be missed

And I saw my fortune scrawled out up against the wall

In a crowded marketplace in a town I can't recall

And the teller told me that I would be young and I would fall

And my new friends all assured me that it all was surely false

And back at home, you found religion in a dirty crystal ball

In the back of a dollar store in that shopping mall

And I found religion out in San Cristobal

Now I feel that I've come far enough to give you a call

Give you a call

I have not been writing as often as I hoped

But there are some things you're good at

And most you can't control

And you have not been visiting; I can't say that I mind

Cause every time you go somewhere

You leave somewhere behind

And I saw my fortune scrawled out up against the wall

In a crowded marketplace in a town I cannot recall

And the teller told me that I would be young and I would fall

But I didn't think he meant so soon- no, not so soon at all

And back at home, you found religion in a dirty crystal ball

In the back of a dollar store in that shopping mall

And I found religion out in San Cristobal

Now I feel that I've come far enough to give you a call

So I'm calling now

But it says I don't got the number right

Your body looks to me a way it never has before

And is this what's making you so sad?

And what you did this for

She said your body looks to me a way it never has before

And is this what's making you so sad?

And I can't do this anymore

And I found religion in a dirty bathroom stall

In the back of a liquor store in the back of a mini mall

And you found religion when you realized you could fall

Now you say that you've come far enough to give me a call

So you're calling now
