Safe on
The interstate
New York
Is three thousand miles away
And I'm not looking forward to following through
But it's better than always running back into you
I've closed my eyes and my bank account and gone west, young man
Take off
The parking brake
Go coasting
Into a different state
And I'm not looking forward to missing you
But I must have something better to do
I've got to tear my life apart and go west, young man
And it feels like I've got something to prove,
But in some ways it's just something to do
My friend's turn me around and say "You go west, young man"
Stepping
Down off my platform shoes
Sixty
Nine in the afternoon
And I'm waiting for someone in the know
Like Pirnir tells me on the radio 
Says take it from someone who's been there before
You go west, young man
And I'm looking for somebody to do
My thinking for me till I come through
The state-line highway sign says you have gone west, young man
And it feels like I've got something to prove
But in some ways it's just something to do
The state-line highway sign says you have gone west, young man

Go West Lyrics
