lyrics

LONG WAY TO GO

call me when you come back down
last night, i left this town
i slept beneath the lights that shone
sometimes you leave it all alone
it's a long way to go

paint my name across the sky
some cons, you'd never buy
i walked, the fields are overgrown
sometimes you leave it all alone
it's a long way to go

though these eyes can hardly see
through the demons on your sleeve
some memories face
and time keeps passing slow
it's a long way to go

kiss your name across my face
i never stepped on grace
her lights were on but no one home
sometimes you leave it all alone
it's a long way to go

saint or sinner, so i've read
these thoughts fly through your head
and lies that turn your god to stone
sometimes you leave it all alone
it's a long way to go

though these eyes can hardly see
through the demons on your sleeve
some memories face
and time keeps passing slow
it's a long way to go

call me when you come back down
these days, i'm still around
in every spirit that you know
sometimes you leave it all alone
it's a long way to go

though these eyes can hardly see
through the demons on your sleeve
some memories face
and time keeps passing slow
it's a long way to go
to leave it all alone

-November 1997
