Heading West

Cyndi Lauper

I drop my hat
To a restless wing
This time I'm not gonna chase it again
In a jigsaw dream with soft spoken words
I woke up crying and no one heard
You're looking through me like I never was real
You say you love me but you won't let me feel
So I'm gonna take a chance this time
I'm gonna find myself some place where I can heal
 
And I'm heading west
Without a sad goodbye
And I'm heading west
I'm like a letter with no address
Just like a book I read
I'm heading west
 
I said my name
Under by breath
He turned down a twisted road
I won't forget
I'm gonna fly my kite and let out all the string
Hold on to hope, let go everything
I can't stop laughin' and it's nothing you said
The altitude of freedom seems to go to my bed
And if I fall down on my knees I'm gonna get back up
I'm gonna get back up again
 
And I'm heading west
Without a sad goodbye
And I'm heading west
I'm like a letter with no address
Just like a book I read
I'm heading west
 
And I'm heading west...
Just like a book I read...
