058 Eastern Longing

 

“I moved 3,000 miles west from home; I can only go

so far west until I settle in the east.”

 

 

Sometime I want to run away

And find a secret place where I can stay

Cause the world around wants to tear me from

The things I desire

 

Sometimes I think I’ll fall apart

The westerners around just don’t get it

I look to the east as if to find some peace

In things so much finer

 

Eastern longing

Eastern longing

Eastern longing surround me

 

Sometimes I close my eyes at night

And dream to make these feelings subsidize

But the distance around will keep me down

And water my eyes

 

Sometimes I want to pack it all up

Lock up my things and move out real far

Guitar by my side I’ll head for sunrise

Just close my eyes and drive

 

Eastern longing

Eastern longing

Eastern longing surround me

 

Sometimes I think I’ve got it all wrong

The Westerners around just don’t get it

But my fate will bring me there I know

To the place where I can die

 

Eastern longing!

Eastern longing!

Eastern longing surround me!

Eastern longing!

Eastern longing!

Eastern longing surround me!
