Lyrics Cyndi Lauper

Cyndi Lauper

Heading West

I drop my hat

To a restless wind

This time I'm not gonna chase it again

In a jigsaw dream with soft spoken words

I woke up crying and no one heard

You're looking through me like I never was real

You say you love me but you won't let me feel

So I'm gonna take a chance this time

I'm gonna find myself some place where I can heal

And I'm heading west

Without a sad goodbye

And I'm heading west

I'm like a letter with no address

Just like a book I read

I'm heading west

I said my name

Under my breath

He turned down a twisted road

I won't forget

I'm gonna fly my kite and let out all the string

Hold on to hope, let go everything

I can't stop laughing and it's nothing you said

The altitude of freedom seems to go to my head

And if I fall down on my knees I'm gonna get back up

I'm gonna get back up again

And I'm heading west

Without a sad goodbye

And I'm heading west

I'm like a letter with no address

Just like a book I read

I'm heading west

And I'm heading west...

Just like a book I read...
