Paroles de Long Is The Way

Oh Lord I made it through I'm gonna lay down my load One more mile or two Can't escape from my fate no Long is the way [x4] All clad in silk and gold I have seen kings and their queens With just one single golden thread I could have woven dreams I've dug for gold it's true And those kings granted loans But I'm still empty-handed Now I'm heading home Long is the way [x4] Set sail long ago Pledged to fortune and fame And the woman that I will face Shoulders bent in shame Almost hope that she broke Solemn promise she made to me Save her hand for a rich man In vain, in vain, for me Long is the way [x4] There's a car coming this way It's the first in a line With a sense of foreboding I try to see inside My eyes meet through the bridal veil Those that I left behind Both our hearts have stopped beating Two promises have died Long is the way, Long is the way, Long is the way, Long is the way.
