Show Of Hands
the long way home
Select language to translate this lyric
I'm glad that you would meet me
On this lonely side of town
Where we once fell completely
Until our love was found
Now in your face
I read so much
Of other lives you've known
We lost our nerve
And then we lost touch
I took the long way home
I took the long way home
I don't mean to rake all the embers
But you never told me why
The first I knew it was over
Was the last time we said 'good-bye'
I went East to West
I went North to South
There's worlds between us grown
I was cap-in-hand
I was hand-to-mouth
As I took the long way home
I took the long way home
Now I want no vows
I need no plans
No more nights alone
We are are face-to-face
So take my hand
We took the long way home
We took the long way home
