Vanessa Williams - Long Way Home lyrics

It's hard to say from where you stand Exactly when it all began But someplace there's a point you cross the line You see the tears than stain your face Mirrored in your make-up case And know it's time to leave this place behind Chorus: It's a long way home It's a long way home It's a long way home Trying to retrace your steps All too easy to forget Just which way to go It's a long way home Outside the sky is threatening You slowly gather up your things And wonder how you ever will explain Walking out so self-a**ured Yeah, you were gonna change the world Walking back, a child in the rain Chorus: It's a long way home It's a long way home It's a long way home How can you retrace the steps You've been trying to forget Still it's time to go And it's a long way home And if you lose your way Just keep your eye upon that endless broken line Throw bag beneath the bus Sit among the curious It happens to the best of us, you know Chorus: It's a long way home It's a long way home It's a long way home Starting to retrace your steps You learn to live with your regrets Next stop heaven knows It's a long way home Such a long way It's a long way home
