East West
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
East West over the ocean
Perpetual motion, travelling around
No rest, singing and playing
Night out and day in, doing the rounds
What a great life it must seem
(what a great life it must seem)
Swell joints, everything classy
Nothing that's pass? only the best
Lush girls ogling and eyeing
Crying and sighing, this is success
What a great life it must seem
(what a great life it must seem)
But when I hear young voices singing out
The bells at home come ringing out
When I think all alone
When I think of my home
Mom, Dad all round the fire
In festive attire, keeping the day
Aunts, kids, all the relations
Congratulations, this is success
What a great life it must seem
(what a great life it must seem)
But when I hear young voices singin' out
The bells at home come ringing out
When I feel all alone
Then I long for my home
