Lyrics
Long Way Home
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't look inside no don't look there cause you might find yourself somewhere
Walking round lost and alone without one clue that it's a long way home
[ ac.guitar - dobro ]
Years and years is a lot of time to drag your heart cross every rock you find
Hate is deep and its pull is strong but the passion's short then it's a long way home
Oh and I can't take one single step for you
But I might just help to find some small pathway through
[ ac.guitar - organ ]
Don't look back cause you might see just how far all that used to be
Let your mind think on what's gone then you'll know that it's a long way home
Yeah you'll know that it's a long way home
You'll find out it's a long way home
There ain't no doubt that it's a long way home
