Woke up this morning To a song on the radio 'Bout a heart that was broken By a love gone wrong Then I turn my attention To the news on tv Tells a mortal affliction Whatever we see And I felt in my soul Such an urgency That we need each other So desperately oh can't you see It's a long way home It's a long way home Lets walk together Instead of alone On this long way home I've gone through the pages Of a lot of magazines Full of angry looking rock stars And airbrushed beauty queens And next to each picture Is a caption that read Oh your life will be better If you have what we have
And the message grows louder As we fall further from grace So lets speak to each other Of a better place Oh 'cause its a Long way home It's a long long way home Lets walk together Instead of alone On this long way home I'm inclined to think this world is broken And ought to be restored before it dies We are here to keep the hope of heaven To keep it alive 'Cause it's a long way home Its a long long way home Lets walk together Instead of alone On this long way home Oh it's a long way home Its a long long way home So lets walk together Instead of alone On this long way home
