Текст песни June On The West Coast - Companion Version - Bright Eyes

Spent a week drinking the sunlight of Winnetka, California
Where they understand the weight of human hearts
You see, sorrow gets too heavy, joy it tends to hold you
With the fear that it eventually departs

And the truth is I've been dreaming of some tired tranquil place
Where the weather won't get trapped inside my bones
If all these years of searching find one sympathetic face
Then it's there I'll plant these seeds and make my home

Spent a day dreaming of dying in Mesa, Arizona
Where all the green of life had turned to ash
I felt I was on fire, with the things I could have told you
I assumed that you eventually would ask

And I wouldn't have to bring up my so badly broken heart
All those months I just wanted to sleep
Dpring, it did come slowly, I guess it did it's part
Because my heart has thawed and continues to beat

Oh, feeling bluesy

I visited my brother on the outskirts of Olympia
Where the forest and the water become one
We talked about our childhood, like a dream we were convinced of
That perfect peaceful street where we came from

And I know he heard me strumming all those sad and simple chords
As I sat inside my room so long ago
And it hurts that he's still shaking from those secrets that was told
By a car closed up too tight and a heart turned cold

And I went to San Diego, the birthplace of the summer
I watched the ocean dance under the moon
There was a girl I knew there, one more potential lover
I guess that something's gotta happen soon

'Cause I know I can't keep living in this dead or dying dream
As I walked along the beach and drank with her
I thought about my true love, the one I really need
With eyes that burn so bright, they make me pure

They make me pure, they make me pure
I long to be with you
You make me pure, you make me pure
I want to be with you
