lyrics

Waterfalls, they're posing for pictures
There, standing before--my lovely sisters
Days on the road
Where they traveled from east and to west
A car packed with boxes and clothes
To see our country's best

I was a long, long way from home
I was a long, long way from home

Soft ivory keys, my beautiful mother
He's listening to his life-long lover
I'd turn away when they kissed
They were so much in love
Two hearts so perfectly knit
Like a hand fits a glove

I was a long, long way from home
I was a long, long way from home

I always wanted to love you right

I'd write a book because I'm so damn proud
Look, oh just look, at how they turned out
Seeds that were planted
And nurtured until they were ripe
Gardens like that
Don't just grow up and bloom overnight

I was a long, long way from home
I was a long, long way from home

We've struggled through so many dark times
Tattered and torn and no place to hide
See how I've wronged you
See how I've laughed and scorned
See how you've loved me the same
And you've loved me more

I was a long, long way from home
I was a long, long way from home

I always wanted to love you right
