lyrics

Long Way Round

I took the long way round
And my journey’s not complete
I’ve stumbled but I found
I wasn’t ready for defeat

So many roads they lead
Us away from our light
I’ve spent way too long
All alone in the night

But oh I’m coming home
Yeah I’m coming home
Oh I’m coming home
To you

I took the long way round
I travelled far
I fell on the rocky road
And I broke my heart

But I’ve learned from my mistakes
And I’ve survived
I hope you’ll still be there
When I arrive
The long way round
The long way round
The long way round
The long way round
