Kishore Kumar Hits — Towers and Trees - West Coast Man lyrics

Artist: Towers and Trees

album: The West Coast

Woo!
I was born upon the east coast
To a working family's wage
'Neath the crumblin' bricks and mortar
Of a manufacturin' age
But you gave me a voice
And a hunger for the stage
I went searchin' for a land where I could shout
So I traced a line so serpentine
Through cities grey and steel
To a girl with auburn hair
Tell my heart how it could feel
To a lover firm and steady
As my hands upon the wheel
Two and ten
Even then I had my doubts
Hey
So I said hold my hand
Til the pines turn to cedars
And the cedars turn to sand
We'll unwind this ribbon highway
Til we reach the very end of who I am
I am a west coast man
We caught a southern wind
Blowin cross the great divide
And it pulled me to the desert
With my bitterness and pride
Left my heart a vacant relic
'Til I let you come inside
And I learned to live off plenty in the drought
'Til you said "Babe,
Pack your things, we're headed out
So hold my hand
Til the pines turn to cedars
And the cedars turn to sand
Well I came here as your lover
But now its as your friend
That I stand
And you are a west coast man
So just leave it all behind
Well all your trouble
And the wonderin' in your eye
For every story
(That you cannot write)
Just close the book on it
(Close the book on it)
Cause we're headed out sweet darlin
(Close the book on it)
Just you and me girl
Close the book on it
And the skies they opened wide
The day we landed on the coast
And I fell like autumn rain
Upon the one I love the most
Against the bruised and battered U-Haul
Still haunted by the ghost
Of a thousand endless nights out on the road
And I cursed the cold pacific rain
For falling on my home
'Til it cut through my intentions
And it soaked me to the bone
And I was screaming at the skies
'Til I was laughing on my own
That's when I knew
Well I was through
And I was home
So hold my hand
'Til the pines turn to cedars
And the cedars turn to sand
We'll chase a cold water romance
With this north western land
That's who I am
When you hold my hand
'Til the sky turns fire red
Beyond the farthest reach of man
I came crawling to your shoreline
Now it's time to take a stand
For who I am
I am a west coast man
