East by Marah
East lyrics
This evening the pigeons turned to bars of gold
In the sun�s last light
And across the river, Camden is a guilded kingdom
on the verge of night
And so poised here at the edge of the city
I�m getting high on the sound
Of the buzz of 95
And the scent of something going down.
CHORUS:
East, baby, where the South Street floats into the sky.
Tonight east is all I need to finally start to feel defined.
And so a man standin� out over the highway
As an autumn twilight chills his skin
At last has come to terms that where he�s from
is more then where he�s been
Now the traffic in the flashing shadows of the final glow
Are just a rush of burning chariots driven by the ancient lure of home
And with my hands tucked deep down in my pockets
I see my own breath in the light
Of the east that holds and soothes me
As I spin west into Friday night.
*CHORUS*
