Long Way from Home
Take me back to Singapore and leave me there,
A long way from home
Lie down in an easy- chair and forget about,
A long time ago, a long way from home
You shout my name into your darkest night,
As if it takes me back to you
You made a choice, it turned out wrong,
Now live with it, it was your choice all along,
And that's how life goes
I tried to meet you halfway, a long time ago
I lost my place in your world, a long time ago,
Oh a long way from home
Calling me a million times: I won't pick up,
Cause I know what you gonna say
You tell me now that I don't fit your ways,
But you fit all along, and I'm far from home
Wreck my dreams like they were fishing boats,
That got hit by the ocean's tides
Cry for help, cause the night is getting cold,
I'm not gonna share my coat,
Once again you're on your own
one two three, one two three
I tried to meet you halfway,
a long time ago
I lost my place in your world,
a long time ago,
Oh a long way from home
Take me back to Singapore and leave me there,
A long way from home
It was time to leave, time to say goodbye,
A long time ago, oh a long way from home
(Cause I loved you!)
I tried to meet you halfway,
a long time ago
I lost my place in your world,
a long time ago,
Oh a long way from home
I tried to meet you halfway,
a long time ago
I lost my place in your world,
a long time ago,
Oh a long way from home
A long way from home
Lie down in an easy- chair and forget about,
A long time ago, a long way from home
You shout my name into your darkest night,
As if it takes me back to you
You made a choice, it turned out wrong,
Now live with it, it was your choice all along,
And that's how life goes
I tried to meet you halfway, a long time ago
I lost my place in your world, a long time ago,
Oh a long way from home
Calling me a million times: I won't pick up,
Cause I know what you gonna say
You tell me now that I don't fit your ways,
But you fit all along, and I'm far from home
Wreck my dreams like they were fishing boats,
That got hit by the ocean's tides
Cry for help, cause the night is getting cold,
I'm not gonna share my coat,
Once again you're on your own
one two three, one two three
I tried to meet you halfway,
a long time ago
I lost my place in your world,
a long time ago,
Oh a long way from home
Take me back to Singapore and leave me there,
A long way from home
It was time to leave, time to say goodbye,
A long time ago, oh a long way from home
(Cause I loved you!)
I tried to meet you halfway,
a long time ago
I lost my place in your world,
a long time ago,
Oh a long way from home
I tried to meet you halfway,
a long time ago
I lost my place in your world,
a long time ago,
Oh a long way from home
