Verse 1:
|
I left home a long long time ago
|
In a tin can for the road
|
With a suitcase and some songs
|
Chasing miles through the night time
|
Making tracks with no time for looking back
|
To the place where I belong
|
|
Chorus 1:
|
How these days grow long
|
But I'm on my way back home
|
It's been hard to be away
|
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
|
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
|
How these days grow long
|
|
Verse 2:
|
When you're sad you know I wish I could be there
|
To make your sorrows disappear
|
And set your troubles free
|
It's not fair for me to be this far from you
|
But I promise to stay true, wherever I might be
|
|
Chorus 2:
|
Time keeps burning
|
The wheels keep on turning
|
Sometimes I feel I'm wasting my days
|
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
|
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
|
How these days grow long
|
Time keeps burning on
|
How these days grow long
|
|
Verse 3:
|
Now I'm lost in a sea of sunken dreams
|
While the sound of drunken screams echos in the night
|
But I know all of this will come to pass
|
And I'll be with you at last, forever by your side
|
|
Chorus 1:
|
How these days grow long
|
But I'm on my way back home
|
It's been hard to be away
|
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
|
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
|
|
Chorus 2:
|
Time keeps burning
|
The wheels keep on turning
|
Sometimes I feel I'm wasting my days
|
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
|
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
|
How these days grow long
|
Time keeps burning on
|
How these days grow long
