West Lyrics

Lucinda Williams West

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
