i saw you standing there held captive in the night tell me true speak me soft do you think its right look at me like a tease sing me something tawdry linger on for a while love i know you want me
in the west i was whole in the west i lost myself in the west i had it all in the west, in the west
and i hope in every city and i know in every town theres a looker waiting for you hoping you might settle down
i thought that i could find peace of mind in the west i thought that i could find paradise in the west and now i know that i was wrong
i saw light in the days walk away grace was gone gave my all to a man kept his words on his arms he’s my west
