Taking The Long Road Home Songtext
von Kevin Johnson

When I was a young boy
Had big intentions
I thought I could be just about anything you′d care to mention
I was a young boy
Hard on the heels of success
I was a wide-eyed, unsatisfied young fool
I have to confess
But I guess I did all right for a while

Burning the midnight oil
Thinking my life might spoil
If I didn't bring myself up to a steady boil
I was a young boy, really on the road to somewhere
But now I′m a man who doesn't really give a damn if I never get there


Takin' the long road home
I′m takin′ the long road home
Takin' the time to find a way around the life I′ve known
Takin' the wrong road home
Oh, that′s where I'm gonna be
And I tell you pretty women
I tell you good times
From now on you′re gonna find you'll see a whole lot more of me

Takin' the long road home
Takin′ the long road home
Takin′ the time to find a way around the life I've known
Takin′ the wrong road home
Oh, that's where I′m gonna be
And I tell you pretty women
I tell you good times
From now on you're gonna find you′ll see a whole lot more of me
