D-DU-UDU

Well they say that the mountains touch the sky

Far away out west of the great divide

And there's fertile fields and valleys down below

And I'm telling you brother we'd be fools not to go

(chorus)

And I've never been out west he said

It always seemed so far away

And it's just a direction I guess

And I'm getting too old waiting around for someday||

Well the dreams they faded fast as the trucks rolled by

And it seemed we shared a longing deep inside

And I said you've got nothing to lose girl and we've got room for one more

She put her hand in mine and we left without locking the door

(chorus)

I've never been out west she said

It always seemed so far away

And it's just a direction I guess

And I'm getting too old waiting around for some day

Well the rain is relentless in Seattle

And when it came it was more than I could handle

And did I watch her fall or did she watch me let her go

I've got no one and nothing left to lose here anymore

And I'd never been out west she read

It always seemed so far away

And it's just a direction I guess

And I'm getting too old waiting around for some day
