It's A Long Way Back Lyrics - Singles - Anderson John

First date, first kiss 

Well I never will forget 

The way you looked that night 

Parked out, 'cross town 

Watchin' the stars fall down 

Girl your hair was soft and brown and 

Just before we get too far I'd hear you say 

It's gettin' late, we need to go 

And it's a long way back 

Made plans, got rings 

And had us a million dreams 

Where our road might lead 

It wasn't long, we had a truck 

With all of our things boxed up 

Left town in a cloud of dust and 

Got movin', improvin' 

Why I can't say 

But suddenly it seems to be 

Such a long way back 

I've tried, you've tried 

And nobody's satisfied 

Is this where it all ends 

We can't be so far down 

Where we can't turn around 

Pick up this love we found 

Just before we get too far 

I hear you say 

It's gettin' late, we need to go 

And it's a long way 

Just before we get too far 

I here you say 

It's gettin' late, we need to go 

And it's a long way back.
