Song language: English
Long Way from Home |
Held on to hope like a noose, like a rope |
God and medicine take no mercy on him |
Poisoned his blood, and burned out his throat |
Enough is enough, he’s a long way from home |
Days of my youth wasted on a selfish fool |
Who ran for the hills from the hand you were dealt |
I flew far away, as far as I could go |
Your time is running out |
And I’m a long way from home |
Laid up in bed, you were laid up in bed |
Holding the pain like you’re holding your breath |
I prayed you could sleep, sleep like a stone |
You’re right next to me |
But you’re a long way from home |
Hospital gowns never fit like they should |
We yelled at the nurse, didn’t do any good |
More morphine, the last words you moaned |
At last I was sure |
That you weren’t far away from home |
