You're stumblin' down the road, losin' your way Lookin' for tomorrow, prayin' for the light of day You got the devil on your shoulder, whisperin' in your ear He's tellin' you've got secrets, everything you wanna hear But you don't hear no warnin' See the writing on the wall You never seem to notice Just how far you're gonna fall And baby, baby, it's a long way home, yes it is You're runnin' at full speed, those ghosts got you followin' your nose But round and round in circles, that's the only place that you go Well ya better start flyin' straight now, better listen to me son 'Cause you're only gonna fall further, 'cause your mind's not enough But you don't hear no warnin' Man the writing's on the wall And time, time, you won't realise You got a long way to fall And baby, b-b-b-b-b-b-baby, it's a long way home, yes it is Yes it is It's a long way Lord ain't it funny how it crept in, kind of crept in like the night You was havin' so much fun in your party, Lord you didn't even notify And a-watching you go under, it's just like watching someone drown Ain't it funny how they'll kick you, like a dog when you're down But you don't hear no warnin' Man the writing's on the wall And time, time, you won't realise Got a long way to fall And baby, baby, it's a long way home, yes it is Yes it is It's a long way Long way Long way Long way Long way Long way Long way Long way Long way home
