You are a highway with no exits, |
|
They say she drove you to extremes. |
|
She couldn't stand that endless freeway, |
|
"free" is never what it seemed. |
|
She saw you from afar |
|
But you went the distance for her soul. |
|
She could never pay you back |
|
So she just took her toll. |
|
It's a long way home, this time. |
|
You are a highway with no exits, |
|
They say you took her for a ride. |
|
But you just paved your way to heartache |
|
And froze all up inside. |
|
You thought you knew the signs |
|
But she walked out on you. |
|
All that open sky |
|
Never felt so blue. |
|
It's a long way home, |
|
It's a long way home, |
|
It's a long way home, this time. |
|
She was out of this world but you were out of your mind. |
|
A heartless expedition to the steady and the kind. |
|
Your are a highway with no exits, |
|
They say she drove all over you. |
|
You kept looking 'round for answers |
|
While nothing dawned on you. |
|
You are a highway with no exits, |
|
They say you should have known. |
|
But who are they to tell you - |
|
Those who've not been shown |
|
The long way home |
|
The long way home |
|
The long way home, this time. |
|
Love can take you back or it can make you lose your mind. |
|
Now they're lining up to take your place - the eager and the blind. |
|
It's a long way home, |
|
It's a long way home |
|
It's a long way home. |
