Lyrics The Long Cut - Uncle Tupelo

The Long Cut

I’ve been searching
And you’ve been gone
Been looking for the shortest path
To the one that you’re on
And I’ve already seen
All I want to see
Come on, let’s take the long cut
I think that’s what we need
When we were younger
We were strong
We felt a lot better
The things that we’d done
Now if it’s to be
And if you still believe
Come on, let’s take the long cut
I think that’s what we need
If you want to take the long cut
We’ll get there eventually
I’ve been searching
And you’ve been gone
Been looking for the shortest path
To the one you’re on
Now if it’s to be
And if you still believe
Come on let’s take the long cut
I think that’s what we need
We’ve been in a deep rut
And it’s been killing me
If you want to take the long cut
We’ll get there eventually
