LONG WAY BACK HOME Lyrics Sugar Bee/Comp Bobby Black 11132012
It Seems Ive Traveled a million miles
Since I’ve seen your face
There were tears welling in your eyes
You even cry with grace
I knew I’d miss your lovin’ smile
But the road called out my name
I was sure too, it was better for you
I’d seek my fortune, my fame
Chorus:
It’s a long way to make it on my own
It’s a long way back home
Without you girl, I can’t come into my own
It’s a long way back home
I didn’t even say “I Love You”
When we last spoke on the phone
I felt the pain in your voice
When you asked me to come home
So I’ve rambled now from town to town
Trying to turn a dime
I wanted the things that money could buy
No more worries no more cryin’
I told myself I’d be better off
If only I’d forget
Now I’m stuck here at the corner
Of remorse and regret
Chorus:
It’s a long way to make it on my own
It’s a long way back home
Without you girl, I can’t come into my own
It’s a long way back home
I’m still on the move, I’m missin’ you
I’d give it all to feel your touch
I’m a simple man that had a master plan
I didn’t think I’d asked too much
I wanted more than I had before
But my longing only grew
Now I see, I’d have all I need
If I’d only stayed home with you
Chorus:
It’s a long way to make it on my own
It’s a long way back home
Without you girl, I Can’t make it on my own)
It’s a long way back home
