Long Way Home

Ginny Owens

Woke up this morning
To a song on the radio
'Bout a heart that was broken
By a love gone wrong
Then I turn my attention
To the news on tv
Tells a mortal affliction
Whatever we see
And I felt in my soul
Such an urgency
That we need each other
So desperately oh can't you see

It's a long way home
It's a long way home
Lets walk together
Instead of alone
On this long way home

I've gone through the pages
Of a lot of magazines
Full of angry looking rock stars
And airbrushed beauty queens
And next to each picture
Is a caption that read
Oh your life will be better
If you have what we have
And the message grows louder
As we fall further from grace
So lets speak to each other
Of a better place

Oh 'cause its a
Long way home
It's a long long way home
Lets walk together
Instead of alone
On this long way home

I'm inclined to think this world is broken
And ought to be restored before it dies
We are here to keep the hope of heaven
To keep it alive

'Cause it's a long way home
Its a long long way home
Lets walk together
Instead of alone
On this long way home

Oh it's a long way home
Its a long long way home
So lets walk together
Instead of alone
On this long way home
