"Long Way Home" lyrics
"Long Way Home"
I'm just a long, long way from home
I'm just a long, long way from home
Lord knows I ain't a saint
My folks ain't the ones to blame
I ain't chose the path I roam
And it's a long way home
I'm tired of the chains
That keep holding me down
And I'm stuck in the fog
That I just can't see around
My feet grow weary
From these miles on the road
But I got my brother to help me carry the load
Well I been feelin' all alone
In this world I bought
And I been wrapped in imitations
For the love I sought
Through the risings of the water
And the nights of endless black
I know my sisters always got my back
I'm just a long, long way from home
I'm just a long, long way from home
Lord knows I ain't a saint
My folks ain't the ones to blame
I ain't chose the path I roam
And it's a long way home
So we walk along the road
That we did not plan
We boarded on the ships
To a promised land
From time we have together
To the lonesome catacomb
We don't walk it on our own
And it's a long way home
Well it's a long, long way from home
I'm just a long way from home
Lord knows I ain't a saint
My folks ain't the ones to blame
I ain't chose the path I roam
And it's a long way home
We don't walk it on our own
And it's a long way home
