Letra de Go West

Oh, no malice does exist in these words I am now writing
Although one might catch the faintest glance at sorrow
I'm but trying hard to grasp all these fragments as they're passing
Piece the puzzle now before the trail grows cold
And I'm not asking for the answers
In mathematical equations to be culled and calculated by unbiased hands
For at truth I am so stricken
And I care only to forever dance
Which proves I am the better broken half;
Oh and I am but the bitter better half
And my callous speculations
They leave no room for calm or reason
I have placed myself on altars that are hollow
So adept at finding weakness
I smell fear and close my fists
Unaware the stench I'm smelling is my own
So yeah, you left me and I'm bitter
And my pride is shocked and raw
For I believe I will be changing roads no more
I know that life is full of dead ends
But I saw us as a highway
Ever stretching on from coast to golden coast
Oh, but now instead I'm singin'
Go west, Emily
Grab your boots and find yourself somewhere
I'll find another lover in the east
I said go west, Emily
Oh you know you've got my blessing
But you can't expect these eyes of mine to watch you leave
So with no malice I'll begin just once more to tell our story
Though the ending I may never hope to know
You were a sweet and sound companion
Though our paths led us apart
And I may never sleep so soundly as I did while in your arms
Now all I ask is you remember who you loved and who you lost
Please don't bury me in silence
Or in blackest shroud of thought
Don't pretend that what we had was any less than what it was
For I will not soon be forgetting the reasons
Why we fought so hard oh to make it work
But go west, Emily
Grab your boots and find yourself somewhere
I'll find another lover in the east
Well I said go west, Emily
Oh you know you've got my blessing
But you can't expect these eyes of mine to watch you
Go west, Emily
Grab your boots and find yourself somewhere
I'll find another lover in the east
Well I said go west, Emily
Oh you know you've got my blessing
But you can't expect these eyes of mine to watch you leave
