East From West

Skipping like a stone
Across the bluest pools of what I know
Don't know where to go
Each one leaves a mark
Circles through the dark and sinks into
The place I need you most

As far as the east from the west they say
I should know my east from west I know
As far as the east from the west they say
And I am only human anyway

Now for all your cares
Put them in the air that I breathe in
Until you tell me "no"
And for the smallest hands
Put them in my hand and I walk on
Until you say "let go"

As far as the east from the west they say
I should know my east from west I know
As far as the east from the west they say
And I am only human anyway

I am only human anyway
