Long Way Home

It's a long way home, and the fists have flown

In the silence, there's nowhere left to run

It's the battle of our pending love

In the shadow of another smoking gun



When we dreamed this dream

For the first time, it seemed

We could live this love for a lifetime

You and me

So I will



[chorus]

I will not give up this fight

I will not lay down and die

I will not carry this heart of stone

I may not be your place to run

I may not be your kingdom come

I may stumble through this great unknown

But I will be all that is true

I will not give up on you

I was made to be with you alone

Cause you and me, we're gonna see

The long way home



It's a long way home, and the crying's done

But the sorrow is still wet upon your face

Our colliding hearts sometimes break apart

But now the pieces are gathered up in grace



When we dream this dream

For the last time, we'll see

That we lived this love for a lifetime

Just you and me

So I will



[chorus]

I will not give up this fight

I will not lay down and die

I will not carry this heart of stone

I may not be your place to run

I may not be your kingdom come

I may stumble thru this great unknown

But I will be all that is true

I will not give up on you

I was made to be with you alone

Cause you and me, we're gonna see

The long way home



I will not give up this fight

I will not lay down and die

I will not carry this heart of stone

Cause I am not your place to run

I am not your kingdom come

And I may stumble thru this great unknown

But I will be all that is true

I will not give up on you

I was made to be with you alone



Cause you and I, we're gonna fly

The long way home
