Long Way Home

Kevin Welch


I woke up to the sound of the churchbell ringing
Sunday morning rain
Dreaming of you again
Did it ever come true again
I've been thinking  bout the miles between us now
How I got so far away from  you
Running from myself I know
Now it's such a  long way home
Ive been as lost  as the long shot gamble we bet a dollar down
Stuck  out here  in the middle of nowhere
Trying to  turn it all around
Get myself  back on the road
Lord it's such a long way home
We use to race  like a devil  down a straighway
With never a worry in the  world
Chasing down a thin white line
Girl we made  some real good time
Solid  road up ahead take  a turn for the worse
We didn't even try to slow down
That's where we went wrong I know
Now it's such  a long way home
Ive been as lost  as the long shot gamble we bet a dollar down
Stuck  out here  in the middle of nowhere
Trying to  turn it all around
Get myself  back on the road
Now  it's such a long way home
I woke up to the sound of the churchbell ringing
Sunday morning rain
Dreaming of you again
Did it ever come true again
Guess there's only one way to know
It's gonna be a long way home
