Come East
You're drivin down the road somewhere
West of Kansas in the open air
I'm not much for the flatland but I wish I was there

I saw your picture in a magazine
Your eyes have grown hollow from all that you've seen
in the days since you left and the miles in between

Come east, come east
Pay me a visit at least
If you find that tryin' to break free
Ain't all that it's cracked up to be
Baby, come east

You took off like the weeds that the wind likes to blow
I guess it's only been two weeks or so Where you've gone only God and the highway would know

I'd go out lookin' but where would you be
You're a grain in a wheat field, a stone in the sea
I just hope that the road will return you to me

Come east, come east
‘Cause I can't just call the police
Or speed up the earth spinnin' round
So hurry on back to this town, baby come east

Baby, come east
I'm closin' my eyes
Could you ever be here
When the sun starts to rise

Come east, come east
Cause I'm not gonna find any peace
As long as you're out there alone
Chasin' shadows that might be your own
Baby, come east
