about

from the CD "Tip My Hat" (with Jono Manson)

lyrics

Long Way Home

snow fell soft on a quiet street
where i walked slow in stunned defeat
the world i’d known had just slipped away
now there was nothing and so much to say

and it’s a long long long way home

you only lose when you never try
i said to myself but i wanted to cry
snow meant oblivion white for forget
but i wasn’t ready to let it be yet

and it’s a long long long way home

out on the avenue cars barely moved
i wondered what all our suffering proved
maybe we’re passions and useless at best
maybe we’re children who need to be blessed

and it’s a long long long way home

next i remember cold key’s in the door
kicking off snow as i climbed to my floor
i felt the sadness but something else too
fluttered inside me and soared up anew

and it’s a long long long way home 2X
