Lyrics & Music by: Billy Steinberg, Cyndi Lauper, Tom Kelly
Ooh, na, na
I drop my hat to a restless wind
Ooh this time, I'm not gonna chase it again
In a jigsaw dream with soft spoken words
I woke up crying and no one heard
You're looking through me like I never was real (never was real)
You say you love me but you won't let me feel
So I'm gonna take a chance this time
And find myself some place where I can heal
And I'm heading west without a sad goodbye (without a sad)
And I'm heading west, oh woah oh
I'm like a letter with no address (no address)
Just like a book I read, I'm heading west
I said my name under my breath (under my breath)
Ooh, he turned down the twisted road, I won't forget (I won't forget)
I'm gonna fly my kite and let out all the string
Hold on to hope, let go everything
I can't stop laughing and it's nothing you said
The altitude of freedom seems to go to my head
And if I fall down on my knees,
I'm gonna get back up (get back up)
I'm gonna get back up again
And I'm heading west without a sad goodbye (without a sad)
And I'm heading west, oh
I'm like a letter with no address (no address)
Just like a book I read, I'm heading west
And if I fall down on the knees,
I'm gonna get back up
I'm gonna get back up again
And I'm heading west without a sad goodbye (without a sad)
And I'm heading west, oh woah, woah
I'm like a letter with no address (no address)
Just like a book I read, I'm heading west
Heading west
[French lyrics]
[French lyrics]
Without a sad goodbye
Heading west, ooh
[French lyrics]
No address
Heading west
Without a sad goodbye
Heading west
You're the one I'm thinking of
Ooh ooh
No address
Heading west
