East West Lyrics

(Graham Gouldman)

East West
Over the ocean
Perpetual Motion
Traveling 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 good life this must seem!
But when I hear your voice
Singing out
The Bells Of Hope
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)
