Long Way Home

How do you say to slow down

How can you stop and yell it out

When the carousel is moving so fast

How can you stop a moving train

Pause the stars to watch again

Cause you missed them tonight

I'll take your time if you take these rhymes

And hold them in your heart forever

Cause I only want what you want

And I only have what's yours to give

And if I must take the long way home

I need you to walk with me

With me

Given each day is a battlefield

Here I stand with my sword and shield

Waiting for your love to come home

And I will fight for your every word

From years of fighting for me first

For me first

I'll take your time if you take these rhymes

And hold them in your heart forever, forever

I'll take your time if you take these rhymes

And hold them in your heart forever

Cause I only want what you want

And I only have what's yours to give

If I must take the long way home

I need you to walk with me

I've travelled far

Is it far enough

For you and I to know the more I want the less you take away

If you've ever lost

Then you've never loved

So I'll keep on walking, keep walking until the end

I only want what you want

And I only have what's yours to give

If I must take the long way home

I need you to walk with me

And if I must take the long way home

I need you to walk with me

I'll take your time if you take these rhymes

And hold them in your heart forever
