It's A Long Way There
Little River Band
Hey everybody yeah, don't you feel that there's something?
Feel it, feel it?
Hey everybody yeah, don't you feel that there's something?
People on their own are getting nowhere,
I am on the road to see,
If anything is anywhere and waiting, just for me.
Everynight I walk around the city.
Seems like I'll never know,
That feeling of being together when I go.
And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going,
And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going.
Hey everybody, don't you feel that there's something, but you know
in a moment it is gone.
I live for the day when I can hear people saying that they know and
they care for everyone
But I feel like I've been here for the whole of my life, never knowing
home.
It's a long way.
It's a long, long, long way there,
I'm gonna keep on tryin',
I'm gonna keep on tryin', yeah,
I'm gonna keep on tryin',
I'm gonna keep on tryin', ah!
Been away from home for such a long time,
And got to know this town,
But I don't seem to matter much to anyone, who's around
Is there anybody around?
Everynight I walk around the city,
Seems like I'll never know,
The feeling of being together when I go.
And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going,
And it's a long way there, it's a long way to where I'm going.
From: MtnHeart7@aol.comShe takes it deep to the heart right from the start she talks softly over a glass of wine.
Now and again she's more than a friend, why don't you just throw me that line.
It would be great if she'd dedicate just a minute from her precious time.
I'll give it a while, but that's not my style, now how is that a crime?
Everyone says that I'm wild.
Pardon my French but I still know my child.
And that was the day I told her I needed some time.
Well I began walking when she was still talking I'm looking for that exit sign.
Pardon my face but I'm leaving no trace cause I really haven't got the time.
Well I began thinking and my heart is just sinking and I'm looking for that place to go.
Isn't it sad that she'll treat you so bad, but you never really let her know.
And everyone says that she's crying.
But I can't forget all the time I spent trying.
And that was the day I told her I needed some time.
I know, I know what it feels like to be alone.
I know, I know what it feels like to be at home.
I like, I like stopping to say hello.
It's my life, my life why can't we take this slow?
Why can't we take this slow?
Well I've been through these phases, I've walked through these mazes.
I'm sick and I'm little tired.
It sure isn't fair but I'm not aware of the patience that's required.
If I could have kissed her every time that I missed her I still would be out the door.
But now and again, I sure need a friend now isn't that what she's for?
And everyone says that I'm lying,
But I can't forget all the time she spent crying.
And that was the day I told her I needed some time.
I know, I know what it feels like to be alone.
I know, I know what it feels like to be at home.
I like, I like stopping to say hello.
It's my life, my life why can't we take this slow?
Baby take it slow.
It's my life.
My life.
Why can't we take it slow?
Baby, take it slow.
