East West by Morrissey
Artist: Morrissey
Album: unknown
East west
Over the ocean
Perpetual motion
Travelling around
No rest
Singing and playing
Night out and day in
Doing the rounds
What a great life this must seem !
Swelled joints
Everything classy
Nothing is tacky
Only the best
Lush girls
Older and dying
Sighing and crying
"this is success !"
What a great life this must seem !
But when i hear your voice
Singing out
The bells of home
Are ringing out
And i feel all alone
(and i think of my home)
Cold times
A wind through the houses
The bleakness arouses
A longing to leave
Time flew
I wanted to see you
Somehow i could not do
Because of success
What a strange life this can be !
But when i hear your voice
Singing out
The bells of home
Are ringing out
And i feel all alone
(and i think of my home)
