West

Lucinda Williams · West [2007]

Come out West and see



Best that could be



And all you want stay permanently



Come out West and see



Now climb up on a rock



And stretch out in the sun



And close my eyes and let



Imagination run



And tracing your initials



In the shining sand



I'm counting out the days



Till I see you again



Who knows what the future holds



Or where the corns may fall



But if you don't come out West and see



You'll never know at all



I look off in the distance



Blow a kiss away



A thousand miles between us



Disappears from there



I watch as all the starlings



Flying from the north



The beating of their wings



There goes the beating of my heart



I sleep out in the desert



Under the stars above



And keep making an effort



To wonder in your love



Who knows what the future holds



Or where the corns may fall



But if you don't come out West and see



You'll never know at all



Come out West and see



The best that it could be



And all you want stay permanently



Come out West and see
