lyrics

Go west
Just an old phrase I remember
Now the lights close on november
Just an old phrase from years ago
When they went down that solemn road
Go West, Go West...
Just two words
No one evere mentions
But for me a way
to break convention
Is’nt it time we’d cross that pond
To sit down at Wheelies
That great beyond
Go West, Go West...
So long, so long my friends
I gotta walk this world till I reach the end
Deep in my chest
I hear the west
Christmas in Ireland
We all sing a song
Babe you’re so silent
What’s going on
It’s Freddy Malins*
and his ever drunken truth
If we stay here we
we’ll be wasting our youth
Dream dream dream
The way of the feather
Remember that song
The smell of heather
coming on strong
* character in James Joyce ‘The Dead’
