Facing East from a Western Shore Lyrics

Slow goest the road, Time takes its toll

You can find me, Climbing up & down the valley
Surround me, Tahoe to the forefront of Cali
Around me, Got nothing but love for the sound, see it found me
Been climbing a mountain that must of found me
Surround me, been looking to settle down within the valley
The proud me, I’ll push all the brush away with my hand
I’ll clear the land, forget the sand
And build me a life that only I will understand

I paid my tolls, I broke the rules, a part of me is...

CRYING OUT FOR LOVE
The Southern Sojourner
My Muse, My Bliss
BUILDING MY OWN LIFE
The Western Warrior
My blues, my kiss
FIGHTING FOR OUR RIGHT
Facing East from California
My strength, my fist
Welcome me home, welcome me home
Settle me down in the mountain’s mist

I’m climbing a mountain, it must have been so high
The evergreen, the somber seas
My baby sees the part of me that needs this in my life

I’m a phantom again, goodbye to my home again
Goodbye - to my home, my kin...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
