East of Indiana

[Verse 1]
I live East of Indiana
No tilling here to mourn
No fields to the horizon
Your shirts were always torn
Your gaze did slowly drift
Sure as winter fell from Fall
And since you sent no letter
I read the writing on the wall

[Refrain]
East of Indiana
East of Indiana

[Verse 2]
From the high ground she did spin
Tales of being left alone
As if by spreading pain it seemed
She could undo some of her own
If hell is here on earth
Oh, then let me fall
Let me think I know what love is
I don't know anything at all

[Refrain]
East of Indiana
East of Indiana

[Bridge]
In the nighttime did we sing
The moon, her fullness won
Is now indifferent and pale
From here to kingdom come
Well you reap what you will sow
The harvest is on fire
And little girls with little boys' names
Condemned, all, to desire

[Verse 3]
The golden streaming sundown
For a moment I forget
We thought we could go swimming
Without ever getting wet
But the sun will rake it's path
Across me to the west
And each day it sets above you
I am older, I am yet

[Refrain]
East of Indiana
East of Indiana
East of Indiana
East of Indiana
