Here we go

East of the mountains and west of the sea
My love lies weeping for me
Now I'm west of everything, I'm out here on my own
Weeping for the only love I've known

Well I started out in Greenburg, I started out in love
I started thinking nothing could go wrong
But everyday my sisters, they turned a deeper green
And I should have known it couldn't last for long

And now east of the mountains and west of the sea
My love lies weeping for me
And I'm west of everything, I'm out here on my own
Weeping for the only love I've known

Oh they took me to the railroad, put me on a train
Well they said don't even bother to complain
You just say farewell to spring street, girl, say farewell to me
And your lover's face that never more you'll see

And now east of the mountains and west of the sea
My love lies weeping for me
And I'm west of everything, I'm out here on my own
Weeping for the only love I've known

Now out here on the prairies the wind is cold and mean
And at night it wails and whistles round my place
Well I've tried a lot of company,and I tried a lot of booze
But I'll never ever could forget his face

And now east of the mountains and west of the sea
My love lies weeping for me
And I'm west of everything, I'm out here on my own
Weeping for the only love I've known
Weeping for the only love I've known
