lyrics

Estoy buscando a mi marido desaparecido?
Desaparecido…

Well, he’s six feet tall though he’d tell you six-one
His hands are raw from the fields and the sun
And he’s got a smile that can knock you flat
He’s always in a cowboy hat
And he’s got my name tattooed on his arm
He tells me I’m his good luck charm
Have you seen him? Have you seen him?
Let me know if you see him

And I pray that tonight he is safe
That wherever he is, he is among friends
And I pray, I pray they haven’t been chased
That they haven’t been scattered to the winds
Desaparecido

There’s a little birthmark across his right hip
And it’s just the size of a fingertip
And I trace it every single day
In an absentminded kind of way
There’s a patch on his chin where the beard won’t grow in
And the hint of a scar just under the skin
Have you seen him? Have you seen him?
Please, God, have you seen him?

And I pray that tonight he is safe
That wherever he is, he is among friends
And I pray, I pray they haven’t been chased
That they haven’t been scattered to the winds

Nobody vanishes into thin air
Somebody knows why and somebody knows where

The hills, the rocks, the rivers, the sands
I just want to know
The boneyard of the borderlands
I just want to know
The holding cell, the shelter floor
I just want to know
Or naked in a metal drawer
I just want to know
Desaparecido
Desaparecido
Desaparecido

about

Matthew Connor image

Matthew Connor Boston, Massachusetts

Matthew Connor is a crooner for the 21st century, writing heart-wrenching songs that combine the windswept ideals of classic American balladry with stark depictions of modern-day alienation. The Boston-based Connor has a haunting voice that conjures ghosts of past heartbreaks, and he pairs it with spectral guitars that recall country tearjerkers and alt-pop brooding.
