Long Way From Home

歌詞

Held on to hope like a noose, like a rope God and medicine take no mercy on him Poisoned his blood and burned out his throat Enough is enough, he's a long way from home Days of my youth wasted on a selfish fool Who ran for the hills from the hand you were dealt I flew far away, as far as I could go Your time is running out and I'm a long way from home Laid up in bed, you were laid up in bed Holding the pain like you're holding your breath I prayed you could sleep, sleep like a stone You're right next to me, but you're a long way from home Hospital gowns never fit like they should We yelled at the nurse, didn't do any good More morphine, the last words you moaned At last I was sure that you weren't far away from home
