East Of The Mountains

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
