The best that it could be I know you won't stay permanently But come out west and see
And stretch out in the sun And close my eyes and let
And tracing your initials
Who knows what the future holds Or where the cards may fall But if you don't come out west and see
I look off in the distance The thousand miles between us
I watch as all the starling The beating of their wings Echoes the beating of my heart
I sleep out in the desert And keep making an effort
Who knows what the future holds Or where the cards may fall But if you don't come out west and see
The best that it could be I know you won't stay permanently But come out west and see More from Lucinda Williams
