lyrics

ON YOUR LONG WAY HOME

The things you want
May not come easy, hmm
You have to work damn hard
Can send you outta your mind,
So don’t give up
When the day aint breezing
Try to remember
It’s gotta get better some time

You know that it’s the brave that struggle
Hmm, you might need to hustle
And in the rubble
I’ll pull you up

Keep on on the high road
Even when you’ve gotta heavy load
Don’t go driftin’ off the right path
That has nowhere to go
All you gotta do is count me in
And remember if you need a friend
I’ll always be right there
On your long way home

When doubt comes round
It knows where to find you, hmm
It creeps on in
‘Fore long it’s eating into your mind
So find your strength,
Don’t you let doubt blind you
You can guide it on out the door
And carry on with your life

To live a dream takes some tussle
Hmm, you might need to hussle
But in the rubble
I’ll pull you out


Keep on on the high road
Even when you’ve gotta heavy load
Don’t go driftin’ off the right path
That has nowhere to go
All you gotta to do is count me in
And remember if you need a friend
I’ll always be right there
On your long way home

When the world’s a darker place
You’re crumbling
Your hopes have slumped to the depths of your soul,
Keep on looking up
You’ll see the clouds aint tumbling
From this you’ll learn
There’s space to grow
Space to grow

Keep on on the high road
Even when you’ve gotta heavy load
Don’t go driftin’ off the right path
That has nowhere to go
All you gotta do is count me in
And remember if you need a friend
I’ll always be right there
On your long way home

Keep on on the high road
Even when you’ve gotta heavy load
Don’t go driftin’ off the right path
That has nowhere to go
All you gotta to do is count me in
And remember if you need a friend
I’ll always be right there
On your long way home

On your long way home
On your long way home
On your long way home
