A Long Way Home

Dwight Yoakam

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



Just let your mind

Think on what's gone

And then you'll know

That it's a long way home



Yeah, you'll know

That it's a long way home



You'll find out

That it's a long way home



There ain't no doubt

That it's a long way home
