East of the mountains and west of the sea
My love lies weeping for me.
Now Im west of everything, out here on my own,
Weeping for the only love Ive known.
Well I started out in greenburg, started out in love.
Started thinking nothing could go wrong.
But every day my sisters turned a deeper green,
And I should have known it couldnt last for long.
They took me to the railroad, put me on a train,
Said dont even bother to complain,
Just say farewell to spring street, girl, say farewell to me
And your lovers face that never more youll see.
Now out here on the prairies the wind is cold and mean,
And at night it wails and whistles round my place,
And Ive tried a lot of company, tried a lot of booze,
But I never ever could forget his face.
Now east of the mountains and west of the sea
My love lies weeping for me.
Now Im west of everything, out here on my own,
Weeping for the only love Ive known.
