Headed West
Journey of Love: Headed West and East
Lyrics
Headed West, I know it's for the best
Expressing a decision to move towards the western direction, believing it is the best choice.
Just to run away, wish I, could've stayed with you
Expressing a desire to stay with someone, regretting the necessity to run away.
Headed west, I guess it's for the best
Reiterating the decision to head west, emphasizing that it's for the better.
Just to leave you behind, don't wanna waste my time on you
Expressing a determination to leave someone behind to avoid wasting time.
‘Til our hearts give out
Describing a commitment to persist until the hearts involved stop functioning.
Takes a man, not a fool to figure out
Highlighting the need for wisdom to understand and navigate the challenges in the relationship.
‘Til our love runs out
Repeating the commitment to continue the relationship until love is exhausted.
cnd we sat back, one cold evening on the floor
Recalling a moment of intimacy and revelation during a cold evening on the floor.
she said things to me that she had never said before
Describing the partner sharing new, previously undisclosed information.
With her hand in mine, oh, the room spun slow
Depicting a physically disorienting experience while holding hands with the partner.
She said, “Hold on, hold on”
Quoting the partner's words, urging to hold on in the face of challenges.
Headed East, I hope to say the least
Announcing a change in direction, heading east, and expressing a hope to convey love.
That I love you some, didn't watch my tongue with you
Acknowledging a past failure to express love adequately and not watching words carefully.
Now I'm headed East, I can't say the least
Affirming the shift towards the east, admitting a lack of knowledge on expressing love in the past.
That I love you now, ‘cause I, didn't know how with you
Expressing regret for not knowing how to love adequately in the past with the person.
‘Til our hearts give out
Reiterating a commitment to endure until the hearts involved cease to function.
Takes a man, not a fool to figure out
Stressing the requirement of wisdom to comprehend and navigate challenges in love.
‘Til our love runs out
Restating the commitment to continue the relationship until love is depleted.
cnd we sat back, one cold evening on the floor
Recalling a moment of intimacy and revelation during a cold evening on the floor (repeated).
she said things to me that she had never said before
Reiterating the partner sharing new, previously undisclosed information (repeated).
With her hand in mine, oh, the room spun slow
Depicting a physically disorienting experience while holding hands with the partner (repeated).
She said, “Hold on, hold on”
Quoting the partner's words, urging to hold on in the face of challenges (repeated).
I'm headed home, I hope that you know
Announcing a return home and expressing the current love with the newfound knowledge of how to love.
That I love you now, ‘cause I, know how
Affirming the love now, confident in knowing how to express it.
cnd we sat back, one cold evening on the floor
Recalling a moment of intimacy and revelation during a cold evening on the floor (repeated).
she said things to me that she had never said before

With her hand in mine, oh, the room spun slow
