Long Way Home Songtext
von Durand Jones & The Indications

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
With these miles on the road
But I got my brother to help me carry the load


Well, I've been feeling all alone
In this world out far
And I′ve been wrapped in imitations
For the love, I sought
Through the risings of the water
And the nights of endless black
I know my sister's always got my back

And it′s 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 the time we had together
To the loathsome 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, 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
