Gordon Lightfoot - Long Way Back Home Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • From the railhead to the boatyard
  • From the factory to the farm
  • From the mines to the millhouse
  • Ive weathered the storm
  • From the bar room to the bedpost
  • Ive wasted my days
  • All I have is my drink
  • And the time left to think
  • While time slips away
  • Just look at my face
  • As you tell me goodbye
  • Youll see what Im after
  • By the look in my eye
  • Just walk away
  • And leave me alone
  • Its a long way back home
  • Now in case you should ask me
  • What it is that Ive done
  • Well I say Im a soldier
  • Who once had a son
  • But my son doesnt know me
  • Thats his right to choose
  • Oh say can you see
  • My best friend is me
  • Im a friend I could use
  • Just look at my face
  • As you tell me goodbye
  • Youll see what Im after
  • By the look in my eye
  • Just walk away
  • And leave me alone
  • Its a long way back home
  • Now the pages have faded
  • The story grows cold
  • And the plot falls to ashes
  • Like the ruins of old
  • Those rats in my rafters
  • Theyre after my shoes
  • And anything else
  • They can find on the shelf
  • Ive said they could use
  • Just look at my face
  • As you tell me goodbye
  • Youll see what Im after
  • By the look in my eye
  • Just walk away
  • And leave me alone
  • Its a long way back home
  • Its a long way back home
