Looking East (Album) - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)/David Lindley (戴维·林德利)[00:00:00]

Written by：Fritz Lewak/Jackson Browne/Jeff Young/Kevin James Mc Cormick/Luis Conte/Mark Goldenberg/Scott Thurston[00:00:02]

Standing in the ocean with the sun burning low in the west[00:01:14]

Like a fire in the cavernous darkness at the heart of the beast[00:01:21]

With my beliefs and possessions stopped at the frontier in my chest[00:01:29]

At the edge of my country my back to the sea looking east[00:01:37]

Where the search for the truth is conducted with a wink and a nod[00:01:49]

And where power and position are equated with the grace of god[00:01:58]

These times are famine for the soul while for the senses it's a feast[00:02:05]

From the edge of my country as far as you see looking east[00:02:13]

Hunger in the midnight hunger at the stroke of noon[00:02:22]

Hunger in the mansion hunger in the rented room[00:02:30]

Hunger on the TV hunger on the printed page[00:02:38]

And there's a god sized hunger underneath the laughing and the rage[00:02:45]

In the absence of light[00:02:53]

And the deepening night[00:02:57]

Where I wait for the sun[00:03:00]

Looking east[00:03:04]

How long have I left my mind to the powers that be[00:03:41]

How long will it take to find the higher power moving in me[00:03:48]

Power in the insect[00:04:19]

Power in the sea[00:04:21]

Power in the snow falling silently[00:04:23]

Power in the blossom[00:04:27]

Power in the stone[00:04:28]

Power in the song being sung alone[00:04:30]

Power in the wheat field[00:04:34]

Power in the rain[00:04:36]

Power in the sunlight and the hurricane[00:04:38]

Power in the silence[00:04:42]

Power in the flame[00:04:44]

Power in the sound of the lover's name[00:04:46]

The power of the sunrise and the power of a prayer released[00:04:49]

On the edge of my country I pray for the ones with the least[00:04:57]

Hunger in the midnight hunger at the stroke of noon[00:05:05]

Hunger in the banquet hunger in the bride and groom[00:05:13]

Hunger on the TV hunger on the printed page[00:05:21]

And there's a god sized hunger underneath the questions of the age[00:05:28]

And an absence of light[00:05:36]

In the deepening night[00:05:40]

Where I wait for the sun[00:05:44]

Looking east[00:05:48]
