The Long Way Songtext

The Long Way Songtext
A thousand images of broken light
Like diamonds on the river shining so bright
And when the sun sets on a silent glide
I wonder who you are
You become an abstraction a kind of idea
And though I try so hard I can′t even hear
Your voice that used to be so clear
I wonder where have you been
I've been waiting just for you all my life
And now what am I gonna do
I have to learn to survive
They say to sin is human
Forgiving is divine
That doesn′t mean we got a reason
For wasting all that time
It's gonna be a long long way
Won't you come for a ride
We haven′t got a lot to say
But that′s alright
It's gonna be a long long way
And when we arrive
That′ll be the brightest day of my life
When you think that love goes on and on
You may find out it has turned off and is gone
There's a place in the middle of nowhere for us all
And I wonder if it′s me who's gonna fall
It′s your life to do what you like
And I do what I have to do
Now look me in the eye
Tell me your version of the truth
I thought I knew you
What did I really know
And now in the light of day
Your true colours start to show
A thousand images of broken light
Like diamonds on the river shining so bright
And when the sun sets on a silent glide
I wonder who you are
I've been waiting just for you all my life
And now what am I gonna do
I have to learn to survive
They say to sin is human
Forgiving is divine
That doesn't mean we got a reason
For wasting all that time
It′s gonna be a long long way
Won′t you come for a ride
We haven't got a lot to say
But that′s alright
It's gonna be a long long way
And when we arrive
That′ll be the brightest day of my life
It's gonna be a long long way
Won′t you come for a ride
We haven't got a lot to say
But that's alright
It′s gonna be a long long way
And when we arrive
That′ll be the brightest day of my life
It's gonna be a long long way
Won′t you come for a ride
We haven't got a lot to say
But that′s alright
It's gonna be a long long way
And when we arrive
That′ll be the brightest day of my life
Like diamonds on the river shining so bright
And when the sun sets on a silent glide
I wonder who you are
You become an abstraction a kind of idea
And though I try so hard I can′t even hear
Your voice that used to be so clear
I wonder where have you been
I've been waiting just for you all my life
And now what am I gonna do
I have to learn to survive
They say to sin is human
Forgiving is divine
That doesn′t mean we got a reason
For wasting all that time
It's gonna be a long long way
Won't you come for a ride
We haven′t got a lot to say
But that′s alright
It's gonna be a long long way
And when we arrive
That′ll be the brightest day of my life
When you think that love goes on and on

It's gonna be a long long way
Won′t you come for a ride
We haven't got a lot to say
But that's alright
It′s gonna be a long long way
And when we arrive
That′ll be the brightest day of my life
It's gonna be a long long way
Won′t you come for a ride
We haven't got a lot to say
But that′s alright
It's gonna be a long long way
And when we arrive
That′ll be the brightest day of my life
