Twin Shadow - Gated Windows Lyrics

All along these gated windows
Eyes peer out from the dark
From That Caribbean highway
Cold green waves crash my way
I been working it out

Don't you know that I'm leaving
Fast I go, soon I came
Tell me quick about my country
The warm green air in my blood
Is this home? Do you care?

Dancing in hot colmados
Red white and blue lights that failed
Tell me 'bout the gated windows
The Mothers yell, children dwell
Wild dogs dance in the air

From that rowdy bodega
We bought rum, guitars strum
Filled our lungs, fuck the vanguard
Tranquilo, Hermosa
There was love in the air
Don't you know that I'm leavin'
