Looking East (LP Version) - Jackson Browne[00:00:00]

Standing in the ocean with the[00:00:23]

Sun burning low in the west[00:00:25]

Like a fire in the cavernous darkness[00:00:30]

At the heart of the beast[00:00:32]

With my beliefs and possessions[00:00:37]

Stopped at the frontier in my chest[00:00:39]

At the edge of my country my[00:00:44]

Back to the sea looking east[00:00:47]

Where the search for the truth is[00:00:55]

Conducted with a wink and a nod[00:00:57]

And where power and position[00:01:03]

Are equated with the grace of god[00:01:05]

These times are famine for the soul[00:01:10]

While for the senses it's a feast[00:01:13]

From the edge of my country as[00:01:17]

Far as you see looking east[00:01:20]

Hunger in the midnight hunger[00:01:25]

At the stroke of noon[00:01:27]

Hunger in the mansion hunger[00:01:32]

In the rented room[00:01:34]

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

On the printed page[00:01:41]

And there's a godsized hunger[00:01:46]

Underneath the laughing and the rage[00:01:48]

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

And the deepening night[00:01:57]

Where I wait for the sun[00:02:01]

Looking east[00:02:04]

How long have I left my mind[00:02:24]

To the powers that be[00:02:27]

How long will it take to find the[00:02:31]

Higher power moving in me[00:02:34]

Power in the insect[00:02:52]

Power in the sea[00:02:54]

Power in the snow falling silently[00:02:56]

Power in the blossom[00:02:59]

Power in the stone[00:03:01]

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

Power in the wheatfield[00:03:07]

Power in the rain[00:03:08]

Power in the sunlight and the hurricane[00:03:10]

Power in the silence[00:03:14]

Power in the flame[00:03:15]

Power in the sound of the lovers name[00:03:17]

The power of the sunrise[00:03:20]

And the power of a prayer released[00:03:23]

On the edge of my country I[00:03:27]

Pray for the ones with the least[00:03:30]

Hunger in the midnight hunger[00:03:35]

At the stroke of noon[00:03:37]

Hunger in the banquet hunger[00:03:42]

In the bride and groom[00:03:44]

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

On the printed page[00:03:51]

And there's a godsized hunger[00:03:56]

Underneath the questions of the age[00:03:58]

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

In the deepening night[00:04:07]

Where I wait for the sun[00:04:11]

Looking east[00:04:15]
