Heart / Go West (Live at The Royal Opera House, 2018) Lyrics

[Spoken Intro]
All right, here's another old song, in another new version. But which old song? There are so many to choose from!

[Intro]
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Every time
Every time I see you
Something happens to me

[Verse 1]
(Together) We will go our way
(Together) We will leave someday
(Together) Your hand in my hand
(Together) We will make our plans
(Together) We will fly so high
(Together) Tell all our friends goodbye
(Together) We will start life new
(Together) This is what we’ll do

[Chorus]
(Go west) Life is peaceful there
(Go west) In the open air
(Go west) Where the skies are blue
(Go west) This is what we're gonna do
[Verse 2]
(Together) We will love the beach
(Together) We will learn and teach
(Together) Change our pace of life
(Together) We will work and strive
(I love you) I know you love me
(I want you) I'm not gonna disagree
(So that’s why) I make no protest
(When you say) You will do the rest

[Chorus]
(Go west) Life is peaceful there
(Go west) In the open air
(Go west) Baby, you and me
(Go west) This is our destiny
(Go west) Sun in winter time
(Go west) We feel just fine
(Go west) Out where the skies are blue
(Go west, this is what we're gonna do)

[Bridge]
There where the air is free
We'll be what we want to be
Now if we make a stand
We'll find our promised land
(We'll find)
[Chorus]
(What we're gonna do is go west) Life is peaceful there
(Go west) There in the open air
(Go west) Where the skies are blue
(Go west) This is what we're gonna do

[Verse 3]
(I know that) There are many ways
(To live there) In the sun or shades
(Together) We will find a place
(To settle) Where there's so much space
(Without rush) And the pace back east
(The hustling) Rustling just to feed
(I know I’m) Ready to leave too
(So that’s what) We are gonna do

[Chorus]
(What we're gonna do is go west) Life is peaceful there
(Go west) There in the open air
(Go west) Baby you and me
(Go west) This is our destiny

[Chorus]
(Life is peaceful there)
Go west (In the open air)
Go west (Baby, you and me)
Go west (This is our destiny)
Come on, come on, come on, come on
(Go west) Sun in winter time
(Go west) We will feel just fine
(Go west) Out where the skies are blue
(Go west) This is what we’re gonna do
(Come on, come on, come on, come on, go west)
[Spoken Interlude]
London, won't you show appreciation for our wonder dancers?
And our musicians! On keyboards, vocals, and percussion: Monsieur Simon Tellier! On violin, vocals, and keyboards: Christina Hizon! On percussion and vocals: Afrika Green! On keyboards, the one and only: Chris Lowe! My name is Neil Tennant; we are the Pet Shop Boys!

[Chorus]
(Go west) Life is peaceful there
(Go west) In the open air
(Go west) Baby, you and me
(Go west) This is our destiny
(Go west) Sun in winter time
(Go west) We feel just fine
(Go west) Out where the skies are blue
(Go west, this is what we're gonna do)

[Outro]
Go west
Go west
Go west

Thank you very much, we love you, good night!
