Long Way -

a little after midnight

i feel a little alright

looking through the back page

she looks a little underage

try to keep a secret

try to magnify the sun

gotta get down to mexico

and get a few things done

but its a long way

a long long way to

try to get somewhere

you don’t even know

yeah its a long way

a long long way to go

and then you’re done

here in my brain

french sweater girls in the pouring rain

you walk through the lovebeast

like a hippie revival

your eyes on a minorflip

take some time

dont let it slip

you’re an old familiar song

that i just can’t remember

and its a long way

a long long way to

try to get somewhere

you don’t even know

yeah its a long way

a long long way to go

and then you’re done

then you’re done

in a late marble car

in her mamas red coat

painting on mark bills

and the bad checks are road

try to keep a secret

try to magnify the sun

gotta get down to mexico

and get a few things done

but its a long way

a long long way to

try to get somewhere

you don’t even know

yeah its a long way

a long long way to go

yeah its a long way

it’s a long long way
