I'm a 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.
I'm a long way from home
And so all alone
Homesick, like I never thought I'd be
I'm a long way from home
And everything is wrong
Someone please watch over me
I'm not accustomed to these feelings
The loneliness is burning in my soul
Sometimes the mind is so misleading
I wish I'd stayed at home like I was told
I'm a long way from home
And so all alone
Homesick, like I never thought I'd be
I'm a long way from home
And everything is wrong
Someone please watch over me
When Waylon did it, he sang this verse:
I wish I knew the force within me
That keeps my mind out of control
What makes me reach for things that I can't see
I wish I'd stayed at home like I was told
