Long Way From Home Songtext
von The Waifs

This chill in the air tonight tells me that summer is coming to an end
I know where you′ll be when the weather turns cold out here
You'll be out on the water drifting quiet
On some unbridled sea
On your own


This fire has burned down to ashes
that I sift through for memories of you
I′m trying to recall the words to the songs you used to play
These guitar strings are ringing clear tonight but
the songs don't sound the same Now that I'm all grown
And a long way from Home

You just can′t deny what runs through your blood
It′s hard to leave behind people you love


You were both so young and I wonder did you find it hard like I do
When you're shouldering the sky, carrying the days
Doing what it takes to get you through
The love I have surrounding me
fills me with a warmth that burns inside
I′ve got all that I need right here
But the bent of my mind it holds me bound on the way I feel tonight
All Alone
And a long way from home
