Sitting on the corner bout midnight The shadows hanging long and low Your bloodshot eyes meet me with surprise Guess there’s something we both didn’t know Split of a second to answer Less than a moment that to act The scarlet skies left you drowning in lies And now there ain’t a chance that you’re coming back It’s a long way home When you’re tired and you’re cold It’s a long, long, way back home It’s a long, long, road When your soul you went and sold It’s a long, long, way back home Suspicions arise in the evenings Too many questions to speak I’m feeling faint when in the morning you ain’t Laying in the bed next to me The click of my heels makes you weary You thought you gotten off scott free I found a key to the phoenix motel It was buried our old love seat It’s a long way home When you’re tired and you’re cold It’s a long, long, way back home. It’s a long, long, road When your soul you went and sold It’s a long, long, way back home. A long cold walk down that old dark pier Waves hit the walls and wash over my fear Long lost call to that wild black sea Must have made you forget about me It’s a long way home When you’re tired and you’re cold It’s a long, long, way back home. It’s a long, long, road When your soul you went and sold It’s a long, long, way back home. It’s a long, long, way back home. It’s a long, long, way back home
