Micky & the Motorcars - Never Been Out West Lyrics

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

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

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
