Born in Kansas on an ordinary plain
|
Ran to New York, but ran away from fame
|
Only seventeen when all your dreams come true
|
But all you wanted was someone to undress you
|
And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain
|
Still the grace remains, the face has changed, and you're still the same
|
|
And it's a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be (and it's a)
|
And it's a long, long road (too long), but you're too blind to see
|
|
Frame of silence of an innocence divine
|
Is a dangerous creation when you fail the test of time
|
And all the photographs of ghosts of long ago
|
Still they hurt you so, won't let you go, and you still don't know
|
|
And it's a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be (and it's a)
|
And it's a long, long road (too long), but you're too blind to see
|
|
When you look around yourself now
|
Do you recognize the girl?
|
The one who broke a thousand hearts
|
Terrified the world
|
|
And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain
|
But if the faces change, the grace remains, and you're still the same
|
|
And it's a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be (and it's a)
|
And it's a long, long road (too long), but you're too blind to see (and it's a)
|
And it's a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be (and it's a)
|
And it's a long, long road (too long), and you're too blind to see (and it's a)
|
And it's a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be (and it's a)
|
And it's a long, long road (too long), and you're too blind to see (and it's a)
|
And it's a long, long way (long way) from where you want to be
