Half of a letter 
Tells half a story 
The way I see it 
It's half the worry 
Where I came from 
I forgot too soon
East of the sun 
And west of the moon 

Money talks 
And hey, I'm listening 
I've lived without it 
Enough to miss it 
Where I'm going 
I'll get there soon
East of the sun 
And west of the moon 

Ooh, never gonna get there later 
You know, I wanna get there soon 
Never gonna get there, baby 
On a desert road to home 
East of the sun 
And west of the moon 

Another day leaves me aching 
I try to wake up 
But something's breaking 
Here inside me 
Deep and hollow 
A sound that no other sound 
Could follow 
I know the pain 
Before the wound
East of the sun 
And west of the moon 

Ooh, never gonna get there later 
You know, I wanna get there soon 
Never gonna get there, baby 
On a desert road to home 
East of the sun 
And west of the moon
