First date first kiss well I never will forget the way you looked that night
|
Parked out cross town watchin' the stars fall down
|
Girl your hair was soft and brown
|
Just before we get too far I'd hear you say
|
It's getting late we need to go and it's a long way back
|
[ fiddle ]
|
Made plans got rings and had us a million dreams where our road might lead
|
It wasn't long we had a truck with all of our things boxed up
|
Left down in a cloud of dust
|
And got movin' improvin' why I can't say
|
But suddenly it seems to be such a long way back
|
[ guitar ]
|
I've tried you've tried and nobody's satisfied is this where it all ends
|
We can't be so far down where we can't turn around pick up this love we found
|
Just before we get too far I hear you say it's getting late we need to go
|
And it's a long way Just before we get too far I hear you say
|
It's getting late we need to go and it's a long way back
|

It's A Long Way Back
