We are looking at each other, I can see your profile
You can see my reflection in the mirror
So no one has to look into other's eye
Still we see the same aspects
There is something funny about the scene
The coast of the eastern sea
Is where I want to be
The coast of the eastern sea
Is where I want to be
It's so strange the way things turn
When you want to calm your heart it burns
But when you want it to burn with desire
Only the ice-land get's high and not the flame of fire
♪
Let me die in my shoes
Oh, baby let me win even when I lose
Singing my shoeshine blues
There is something funny about the scene
The coast of the eastern sea
Is where I yearn to be
The coast of the eastern sea
Is where I long to be
It's so strange the way things turn
When you want to calm your heart it burns
But when you want it to burn with desire
Only the ice-land, well, gets any higher
But when you want it to burn with desire
Only the ice-land get's high and not the flame of fire

Underneath the spreading chestnut tree
I sold you and you sold me
Underneath the spreading chestnut tree
I sold you and you sold me (the coast of the)
Underneath the spreading chestnut tree (eastern sea)
(Is where I want to be) I sold you and you sold me
(The coast of the eastern sea) underneath the spreading chestnut tree
(Is where I want to be) I sold you and you sold me
It's so strange the way things turn
