Long Way Home — текст песни (Monkees)

The other night I took the long way home

Out past the old schoolyard

Its funny how you keep it all inside

Dreams they do die hard



I closed my eyes and I could see your face

Somewhere back in time

One summer night a million miles ago

Back when you were mine



Say yes, say no, say that Im grabbing at shadows

But dont carve the words in stone

I know its late

But cant you see I was only

Taking the long way home



Sometimes its easy to get all wrapped up

In trying to be free

And all those dreams I sailed away to find

Were right in front of me



Say yes, say no, say that Im grabbing at shadows

But dont carve the words in stone

One of these days

Youre gonna see I was only

Taking the long way home



Although the letters stopped many years ago

Ill show you even time could not keep this heart

From letting go



The other night I took the long way home

Out past the old schoolyard

Its funny how you keep it all inside

Dreams they do die hard



Say yes, say no, say that Im grabbing at shadows

But dont leave me here all alone

One of these days

Youre gonna see I was only

Taking the long way home



Say yes, say no

But dont leave me here all alone

One of these days

Youre gonna see I was only

Taking the long way home

[repeat]
