Текст песни: Long Way Home + перевод

It’s a long way home

He couldn’t see too well

His left eye was shot out in the war

And the other one was getting so tired of watching all of the time

It’s hard enough keep awake and alive on this cold day

As far as he knows

It’s gonna take four days

For the man to catch up with the mile

And there’s nothing that could ever be smiling

Quite like death at the door

He never thought that he would be poor like that again

Oooh

He had a day dream

And a real need for a cigarette

Oooh

The birds are falling

And it will dark soon

So he told his boots to carry on

On a granite stone

He didn’t sleep too well

He had her name at the edge of his tongue

He made love to this memory

It stung him in the dark

Morning came and it ate his heart

And the sun shot holes in his mind

Oh but the thunder of the river behind him

It brought him up to his knees

And he prayed hard enough to say please

Against his odds

Oooh

He had a day dream

And a real need for a cigarette

Oooh

The moon is calling

And it will be dark soon

So he told his boots to carry on
