Long Way Home Songtext
von Poor Man's Poison

I got a feeling everything′s gonna go downhill
And it's gonna go fast, so I
I started picturing the promises in someone else′s greener grass
See, the wind was blowing like a thousand angels
They got something to say
And then the chimes quit chiming
And the wind went dying on me
It went dying on me

You see it's gonna start raining now
And there ain't nothing much that we can do
So Imma go my way and you can go ′bout yours
And do whatever with whatever you think is true, you see
See I′ve been where the demons walk, and
And I've listened to the spirit talk
And you are nothing like me and I sure ain′t nothing like you


Well it gets cold when you have to take the long way home
The long way home
And there ain't no street going down my path
But there ain′t no hand thats gonna make me fold
And the troubles come and go and they're gone for now
But I feel ′em coming back around

I got a feeling everything just went downhill
And it sure went fast, so I
I started picking up the promises
And I went walking away from the past
That demon sitting on my shoulder still talks to me now and then
But I'm doing my best to not blame you
And I'm doing my best to not give in

It gets cold when you have to take the long way home
The long way home
And there ain′t no street going down my path
But there ain′t no hand thats gonna make me fold
It gets cold when you have to take the long way home
The long way home
And there ain't nobody gonna help you now
It′s the simple things you learn from being alone
And the troubles come and go and they're gone for now
