Looking East - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)[00:00:00]

Standing in the ocean with the sun burning low in the west[00:00:22]

Like a fire in the cavernous darkness at the heart of the[00:00:29]

Beast[00:00:33]

With my beliefs and possessions stopped at the frontier in my chest[00:00:36]

At the edge of my country my back to the sea looking east[00:00:44]

Where the search for the truth is conducted with a wink and[00:00:55]

A nod[00:00:59]

And where power and position are equated with the grace[00:01:02]

Of god[00:01:06]

These times are famine for the soul while for the senses its[00:01:09]

A feast[00:01:14]

From the edge of my country as far as you see looking east[00:01:16]

Hunger in the midnight hunger at the stroke of noon[00:01:24]

Hunger in the mansion hunger in the rented room[00:01:31]

Hunger on the tv hunger on the printed page[00:01:39]

And theres a god-sized hunger underneath the laughing[00:01:45]

And the rage[00:01:51]

In the absence of light[00:01:53]

And the deepening night[00:01:56]

Where I wait for the sun[00:02:00]

Looking east[00:02:04]

How long have I left my mind to the powers that be [00:02:23]

How long will it take to find the higher power moving in[00:02:30]

Me [00:02:37]

Power in the insect[00:02:52]

Power in the sea[00:02:53]

Power in the snow falling silently[00:02:55]

Power in the blossom[00:02:59]

Power in the stone[00:03:00]

Power in the song being sung alone[00:03:02]

Power in the wheatfield[00:03:06]

Power in the rain[00:03:07]

Power in the sunlight and the hurricane[00:03:09]

Power in the silence[00:03:13]

Power in the flame[00:03:14]

Power in the sound of the lovers name[00:03:16]

The power of the sunrise and the power of a prayer released[00:03:20]

On the edge of my country I pray for the ones with the least[00:03:27]

Hunger in the midnight hunger at the stroke of noon[00:03:34]

Hunger in the banquet hunger in the bride and groom[00:03:41]

Hunger on the tv hunger on the printed page[00:03:49]

And theres a god-sized hunger underneath the questions of[00:03:56]

The age[00:03:59]

And an absence of light[00:04:03]

In the deepening night[00:04:07]

Where I wait for the sun[00:04:10]

Looking east[00:04:14]
