Long Long Way Lyrics - Singles - Smalltown Poets

This is the hard part 

Stopping to ask for directions 

Sketching with these dirty colors 

Just where I am 

You might have heard me 

Artfully dodging the buzz word 

And scoffing at your insinuation 

Of just where I am 

I'm a long, long way 

From where I left to begin this refrain 

From where your mercy and grace remain 

From where you sit is it true 

It's not that far to you 

It happened slowly 

Feet falling hard on the pavement 

Eyes reaching into the distance 

Toward empty sunsets 

And I'm a long, long way 

From where I left to begin this refrain 

From where your mercy and grace remain 

From where you sit is it true 

It's not that far to you 

Didn't I need to break out, want to be king 

Wouldn't I face the gallows if I return 

Or is a man freely pardoned 

As I have heard 

Precious Jesus 

Where can I flee from your spirit 

You know me too well 

And I'm a long, long way 

From where I left to begin this refrain 

From where your mercy and grace remain 

From where you sit is it true 

It's not that far to you 

And I'm a long, long way 

From where I left to begin this refrain 

From where your mercy and grace remain 

From where you sit is it true 

It's not that far to you
