Gary Wright
Long Way From Home
[Verse 1]
Some folks are free, they live on their home
Others have children, a wife and a home
My kind of life, I can't recommend
Nobody needs me and I ain't got a friend

[Verse 2]
Once I was someone who lived just like the rest
I had a family and I gave them the best
One day I woke up, convinced I was wrong
I left all I had just to be on my own

[Chorus]
Now I'm a long way from home
A long way from home
And I've been gone too long
A long way from home

[Verse 3]
I travelled far and I saw many things
I spent all my good money and time
'Til the day finally when I realized
That I left so much more behind

[Verse 4]
I'm still alone and tried to make the best
Out of a life, knowing only unrest
Yes, I'm lonely, I live with regret
All that I had makes it hard to forget
[Chorus]
That I'm a long way from home
A long way from home
And I've been gone too long
A long way
From home
