Lyrics
Long, Long Way From 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.
It was a Monday, a day like any other day
I left the small town for the apple in decay
It was my destiny, it's what's we needed to do
They were telling me, I'm telling you
I was inside looking outside
The millions of faces, but still I'm alone
Waiting, I was ever waiting
Paying a pennance, I was longing for home
I'm looking out for the two of us
I hope we'll be here when they're through with us
I was inside looking outside
Oh, the millions of faces, but still I'm alone
Waiting, I was ever waiting
I could feel the tension, I was longing for home
I'm looking out for the two of us
And I hope we'll be here when they're through with us
I'm a long way from home
Monday, sad, sad monday
She's waiting for me
But I'm a long, long way from home
{Repeat 3X
