Past my bedtime only one light shines
I've burned out all the rest
Just one light coming from the west
Wish I had another place to go
Wish I did not crave you so

West is west
West is desire
This desire won't give me rest
I'm going west

Flying on a weightless kiss
Gravity does not exist
Then I'm falling like a love-sick dope
Rolling down a western slope
I'm afraid I can't get up
I'm afraid you'll use me up

West is west...

BRIDGE
West - where it's so damn hot
West - tongues lag, eyes bloodshot
West - our arms and minds are
West - tied in knots
I was going somewhere, guess that I forgot that

West is west...
