Back East

Words

ICame back East, came back to give away my sins Cause I can’t use them no more You know me, I’m your long lost Son I’m gonna settle the score I know you too, you’re the place the sun’s gonna shine I’m telling you, this time I’m gonna see it through

IIYes it happened, I lost everything and when you got nothing No one is your friend Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, nights made me think — how Can I do it again? Can I build home — and who — is gonna live in it? And when I’m gone, I’m gonna ask the Lord what did I give?

IIII’ve been loving — all wrong Oh won’t you help me darling to build a home? I looked up, I saw his eyes in the sky You got to hold on And I knelt down, I was humbled by her touch You already know I was looking around — I should have understood this feeling Though I lost my hope — I never lost my meaning — I never lost my meaning

IVCame back East, came back to give away my sins Cause I can’t use them no more
