Songtexte
Half of a letter tells half a story
The way I see it, it's half the worry
Where I came from, I forgot too soon
East of the sun and west of the moon
Money talks, and hey, I'm listening
I've lived without it, enough to miss it
Where I'm going, I'll get there soon
East of the sun and west of the moon
Ah-ah-ah, never gonna get there later
You know, I wanna get there soon
Never gonna get there, baby
On a desert road to home
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Another day leaves me aching
I try to wake up but something's breaking
Here inside me, deep and hollow
The sound that no other sound could follow
I know the pain before the wound
East of the sun and west of the moon
Oh-oh-oh, never gonna get there later
You know, I wanna get there soon
Never gonna get there, baby
On a desert road to home
Never gonna get there later
You know, I wanna get there soon
Never gonna get there, baby
On a desert road to home
On a desert road to home
West of the moon
(On a desert) West of the moon
To the desert road to home
