I Left My Heart Out West Lyrics

Come alive

To a hazy mountain morning

Empty glass of wine beside the chair

She's the queen

In her mother's Persian gold and

I'm the fool who left her lying there

Tighten up

You're too old to be dreaming

That whisper wakes me just before dawn

Betting luck

I'm eastbound through Missoula

All my good sense is going

Gone

Turning leaves and elegies

I'm never where I want to be

Roam around chasing darkness

I know that home will never be

Waiting on this dead-end street

Just a hole deep in my chest

I left my heart out west

I want to make believe it all

Happens for a reason

Lovers in the fall

Lightening in the air

I want to walk an honest walk

Settle with the seasons

Thought I was running brave

But I was running scared

Turning leaves and elegies

I'm never where I want to be

Roam around chasing darkness

I know that home will never be

Waiting on this dead-end street

Just a hole deep in my chest

I left my heart out west
