Long Journey Home Lyrics - Continental Drifters

Near the dawn she crept in 

Sittin' on the edge of a bed made up to look like it'd been slept in 

And it was dark where I was lying 

But I could see her face 

It looked like she'd been crying 

And it's a Long, Long, Journey Home 

I drink my coffee by the door 

Watch an old man on the street I think i've seen him before 

Because he's out there every week 

Goin' through my trash 

He knows me but we never speak 

It's a Long, Long Journey Home 

It's a Long, Long Time to feel Alone 

Forgiveness and favor earned 

Traveling on lessons learned 

We are all alone in this together 

as far as i'm concerned... 

It's a Long, Long Journey Home 

It's a Long, Long time to feel alone 

I have been rejected 

By the very one I carefully selected 

so I know what you mean 

when you say you stumble on the way to the guillotine 

It's a Long, Long Journey Home 

It's a Long, Long time to feel alone 

It's a Long, Long, Long... 

Journey Home
