Lyrics Long Way Around the Sea - David Bazan

Long Way Around the Sea

We’ve come so far
We’ve followed the star
Herod heard
Said «bring me word»
Take the long way around the sea
Here for us
A humble birth
The son of God
Descends to earth
Take the long way around the sea
On Christmas day
On bended knee
Please accept
The gifts we bring
Take the long way around the sea
Take the long way around the sea
We turn to go
An angel shone
Said, «don't go back
To Herod’s throne»
Take the long way around the sea
Take the long way around the sea
Take the long way around the sea
Take the long way around the sea
