Songtext von The Gap

Wake up in a strange land, one of forty thieves And I see for the first time just what you believe I go down to the market where I can buy or sell And listen to the chanting and all the lies the wise ones tell They say (chorus) East is east, west is west Two diff'rent colors on the map We say break the line, chew the fat a keep moving out into the gap Beggars in the back street, there for all the world to leave It's you that's begging for attention Well it's all the same to me And I won't ask permission, not from teachers or from kings Cause I can see for myself all the pain that you will bring They say (REPEAT CHORUS) Hey! (East)...(West) (East)...(West) (East)...(West) (East)...(West) (East)...(West) (East)...(West) (REPEAT CHORUS) Can you smell the perfume of a hundred thousand years? Dare you look into the eyes that hide a hundred million tears? And there's no need to be so fightened of all the figures in thenight Cause we share the same emotions and no one's wrong and no one'sright They say (REPEAT CHORUS x 3)
