Somebody told me if you live this way
Then it's a long, long haul
I wanna catch a love and make it stay
Oh it's a long, long haul
When you know darkness, you can love a day
Oh it's a long, long haul
I've never seen it, I just talk this way
Oh it's a long, long haul

And you lied to us both
We are words, nothing holds

[Chorus]
I wanna catch a love and make it stay
Oh it's a long, long haul
I'll draw a little joy now of this
Place before I get too old
I'll flee these troubled voices from this
Place within my troubled soul
And there is nothing
So far

If we are salt and earth and sun and stone
Then it's a long, long fall
To fixing trouble in a broken home
And if you won't, you won't call
When you can walk beside me past my past
Oh it's a long, long haul
I wanna catch a love and make it last
Oh it's a long, long haul
And you lied to us both
We are words, nothing holds

[Chorus]

I wanna catch a love and make it stay...
