Cody Canada and the Departed
long way to nowhere
Select language to translate this lyric
At seventeen all i wanted to be
Was gone long gone
The only way i would have stayed
Was a graveyard stone
I had a plan that i could mention
But the road is paved with good intentions
(Chorus:)
Forgiveness if you please
Let it rain down on me
Cause i've come a long way to nowhere
Now when i'm asked did i learn in the past
I say more or less
And do i know which direction to go
Well i must confess
If i thought i knew the answer
I am sure i'd have taken my chances
(Chorus)
The irony is that i'm dying to be
Gone long gone
And you know if i could i'd go back
Home sweet home
Sifting through the mixed emotions
I couldn't change if i took the notion
(Chorus)
Seventeen, all i wanted to be
Was gone, long gone
