Take The 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.

I lift you off the earth mundane and glum

Out of solar system where you passed the sun

'Til all the fear in your hart is gone and so on

Walking trough the world with no pressure

Inner peace beyond measure

I was leaving where it came in

When a man said stop

I want to have what you have

and get what you got

I got it sleeping rough on the streets in the rain

I got it learning to share my peoples pain

I got it making flowers grow in hearts of stone

I got it 'cos I always take thee long way home

I've been walking trough the world with no pressure

As fresher full of vigour life becomes my mirror

The further I go the more I know

Oh yeah, wherever the wind blow I'll be there

Turned up in places that I never intended to go

And so ended my youth I once deepended on proof

Now I'm in the flow, there I things I know beyond knowing

I've seen a seed growing, I was going back home

When a man said stop, I want to have what you have

And get what you got

I got it sleeping rough on the streets in the rain

I got it learning to share my peoples pain

I got it making flowers grow in hearts of stone

I got it 'cos I always take thee long way home
