Van Morrison — Western Man

Western Man has no plan Since he became complacent Stopped believing in himself Let others steal his rewards While he was dreaming While he was dreaming Others were scheming Doing deals behind his back Now Western Man is adrift, and under attack What happened in between? Now there’s no other bite of the cherry Unless he’s prepared to fight Start on a new path to freedom New path to freedom The horse has bolted from the stables Lunatics have taken over the farm Caretakers have taken over the main house Clandestine meetings in the forest Going back to the way it was Now just seems near impossible Western Man has no plan They stole it while, while he was dreaming Now there’s no other bite, no other bite of the cherry Unless he’s prepared to fight Start on a new path to freedom Horse has bolted from the stables Lunatics have taken over the farm Caretakers have taken over the main building The governors have gone over the wall Clandestine meetings in the forest Not going back, not going back to the way it was Western Man has no plan Since he became complacent Stopped believing in himself And let others steal his rewards While he was dreaming While he was dreaming While he was dreaming While he was dreaming While he was dreaming While he was dreaming While he was dreaming Others were scheming Scheming while he was dreaming Others were scheming While he was dreaming Others were scheming While he was dreaming
