Lyrics Hayes Carll

Hayes Carll

Long Way Home

Ramblin boy you've been around

Dallas to the underground

High above and down below

And places I was scared to go

You sang it loud in case they heard

Hanging on to every word

Gentle as a lullaby

Firecrackers in your eyes

I would give anything

For one more night to run

And one last song to sing

You weren't asking much at all

Just catch you when you fall

On your own

The long way home

What's that sadness in your smile

You've been crying all the while

Could you lean upon my shoulder

In case you die or just get old

So what are we supposed to do

Just walk around forever blue?

And all this hurry up and wait

Was it chance or was it fate

I would give anything

For one more night to run

And one last song to sing

You weren't asking much at all

Just catch you when you fall

On your own

The long way home

You weren't asking much at all

Just catch you when you fall

On your own

The long way home
