Don't look inside
No, don't look there
'Cause you might find
Yourself somewhere
Walkin' 'round
Lost and alone
Without one clue
That it's a long way home
Years and years
Is a lot of time
To drag your heart across
Every rock you find
Hate is deep
And its pull is strong
But the passion's short
Then it's a long way home
I can't take
One single step for you
But I might just help
To find some small pathway through
Don't look back
'Cause you might see
Just how far
All that used to be
No, don't look there
'Cause you might find
Yourself somewhere
Walkin' 'round
Lost and alone
Without one clue
That it's a long way home
Years and years
Is a lot of time
To drag your heart across
Every rock you find
Hate is deep
And its pull is strong
But the passion's short
Then it's a long way home
I can't take
One single step for you
But I might just help
To find some small pathway through
Don't look back
'Cause you might see
Just how far
All that used to be
