Long Way Home

Got a fighting chance

And the landscape looks familiar

But I'm looking for a place I've never seen

And I've made mistakes

And I know I'm only human

And no one gets it right without a wrong

Hey!

And I'm on my way, walking in circles

A cloud by day, leading me onward

Thought I heard You say

We're taking the long way home

Taking the long

Fire at night, lighting the shadows

Moving along, little by little

Then I heard You say

Taking the long way home

Oh, I've played my hand

And they say it's all a gamble

But I'd rather lose than know I've never tried

Look how far we've come

Color vision of the future

Laughing out loud while we pray for better days

Then I'm on my way, walking in circles

A cloud by day, leading me onward

Thought I heard You say

We're taking the long way home

Taking the long

Fire at night, lighting the shadows

Moving along, little by little

Thought I heard You say

We're taking the long way home

Taking the long way

It's two steps forward and one step back

It’s a past regret and a second chance

It’s yelling at the sky while He says it’s worth the wait

I hope it’s worth the wait

Been a long time coming

Been a long time coming

Oh, and I'm on my way, walking in circles

A cloud by day, leading me onward

Thought I heard You say

We're taking the long way home

Taking the long way

Fire at night, lighting the shadows

Moving along, little by little

Thought I heard You say

We're taking the long way home

We're taking the long way home

It's been a long time coming
