A Long Way From Home
Baby, I wish that you were sad
Hopeless tears, I could work with that
Baby, I wish you felt alone
A broken heart calling me home
Baby, I wish that I was wrong
But here with you
I’m a long way from home
Baby, I wish that I can know
How far my heart has left to go
Through the storm we reach the city walls
Look how far I’ve come
But I’m still a long way from home
So take me to the river
And wash me before I leave
And remind me who I am
And what it is I believe
Baby, I’ve been out in the cold
Spent nights on mountains of stone
Baby, if anyone should know
Tucked in here with you
I’m a long way from home
So take me to the river
And wash me before I leave
And remind me who I am
And what it is I believe
‘Cause I’ve got a long way to go
And I can’t walk it alone
Thought my journey was done
But I’m still a long way from home
Baby, I’m tired
I want to walk no more
But I’ve got to pack my bags and go
‘Cause I’m a long way from home
