Long Way Home [#]

The answer took some searching for

But you think you understand



With the lights still off

Our clothes still on the floor

And your head in your hands



You say she's holding you back

And bringing you down

You're all out of reasons to stick around

It's time to think of yourself

In spite of her tears

And break your vow of so many years



Well don't get me wrong

I like what I hear

And even if it's true

I have to ask

'Cause I wanna be absolutely clear

Just what am I to you



Oh I'm your light in the dark

Your breath of fresh air

The love of your life

The answer to all your prayers



No, I am just your long way home

I know it, you'll know it soon

I am just your long way home

You're welcome



That morning the day had finally come

For somebody to lose

You kissed me hard and walked out of my door

To give her the bad news



But I followed you there

Like the sick fuck I am

To see what she'd do when you said goodbye again



She opened the door

She opened her arms



And you fell into them like a baby

And there from my car

I became your long way home

I knew it, you know it now

I was just your long way home

I knew it, she knows it now

I was just your long way home



You're welcome
