Lyrics Fairport Convention

Fairport Convention

Westward

I've got my eye on an acre of land

I've got a lush life ahead of me planned

I'm looking out Westward

I'm going home Westward

They promised you silver, they promised you gold

Not one word of truth in the lies that they told

I'm looking out Westward

I'm going home Westward

I'm going home where the air is cleaner

And a word's as good as true

And I'm going home where the grass is greener

And a heart has a purpose too

I've set my heart on that acre of land

With all of that good life ahead of me planned

I'll be counting my money and counting the days

'Til I've got the ticket to take me away

I'm looking out Westward

I'm going home Westward

I'm looking out Westward

I'm going home Westward

I've got my eye on an acre of land

I've got a lush life ahead of me planned

I've got my eye on an acre of land

I've got a lush life ahead of me planned

I've got my eye on an acre of land

I've got a lush life ahead of me planned
