East And West

Keeps the pills on her shelf
In the mirror she tells herself
„Hey, some were born to sing the blues”

On the street are glances
In the bus among prying eyes
Out here there is nowhere to hide

This city she holds dear
Thinking back she counts the years
And looks at the lines on her hands

Come on Audrey please don't go
This world can disappoint, I know
There's something more out there for one like you
You have come so far with hopes to find
And all the things you left behind
'cause this ain't Southern California anymore

Shoebox with old photos
Tells stories only she knows
Did she do something wrong along the way?

'cause no one gets this girl
There's no sweetness left
In this screwed up world
Just life, and another hair turns grey

Come on Audrey please don't go
This world can disappoint, I know
There's something more out there for one like you
You have come so far with hopes to find
And all the things you left behind
'cause this ain't upstate New York anymore

I don't want to see
Settle for less and unhappy
I know that somewhere there's someone for you
There's someone for everyone

Hang on Audrey one more day
I'll wait for you so hang on Audrey

Hang on Audrey one more day
I'll wait for you so hang on Audrey
