It's a Long Way Down
I guess you had to be there
On the day when he was told
After 30 years of service
They said he was too old
So they offered him a watch
And showed him the door
And for once in his life
He couldn't rise from the floor
It's a long way down
For someone who always held on
Its a long way down
Fallin from grace in this town
She was far from sober
That night on the town
A little bit embarrassed
By the attention she had drawn
She was lost out at sea
And just about to drown
When he took her hand
And brought back on the ground
It's a long way down
For someone who always held on Its a long way down
Fallin from grace in this town
And the rumors are flying
Like birds around town
But the people you meet
They stare to the ground
And it's a long way down
On the day when he was told
After 30 years of service
They said he was too old
So they offered him a watch
And showed him the door
And for once in his life
He couldn't rise from the floor
It's a long way down
For someone who always held on
Its a long way down
Fallin from grace in this town
She was far from sober
That night on the town
A little bit embarrassed
By the attention she had drawn
She was lost out at sea
And just about to drown
When he took her hand
And brought back on the ground
It's a long way down
For someone who always held on Its a long way down
Fallin from grace in this town
And the rumors are flying
Like birds around town
But the people you meet
They stare to the ground
And it's a long way down
