The Long Way Home - Show Of Hands

I’m glad that you would meet me

On this lonely side of town

Where we once fell completely

Until our love was found

Now in your face

I read so much

Of other lives you’ve known

We lost our nerve

And then we lost touch

I took the long way home

I took the long way home

I don’t mean to rake all the embers

But you never told me why

The first I knew it was over

Was the last time we said 'good-bye'

I went East to West

I went North to South

There’s worlds between us grown

I was cap-in-hand

I was hand-to-mouth

As I took the long way home

I took the long way home

Now I want no vows

I need no plans

No more nights alone

We are are face-to-face

So take my hand

We took the long way home

We took the long way home
