Long Way To Fall — текст песни (Billy Squier)

Off in the land of heroes and fables
A man would not think to decline
Wrapped in your arms I`d climb any mountain
But that`s only half the climb
Follow the treasures of darkest desire
Dance with Medusa, but don`t look in her eyes

It`s a long, long way to fall, I won`t go down
You took the wrong turn after all, I won`t be there
Knowin` what I know, knowin` I got to go
Cause I don`t believe

There was a time when I could forgive you
And laugh at those sad games we`d play
I always thought that you were the strong one
And you`d break the walls down one day
Follow the circle, you come round again
Land on my doorstep, but I can`t let you in

It`s a long, long way to fall, don`t pull me down
You took the wrong turn after all, I won`t be there
Knowin` what I know, showin` what doesn`t show
Knowin` what I know
That I don`t believe

I didn`t lie when I said that I loved you
But you couldn`t hope to believe
You can`t come home to claim what you squandered
I`ve barely got room for my grief
Heart of the mineshaft the sun never shines
Lost in a minefield you might as well be blind

It`s a long, long way to fall, I won`t go down
You took the wrong train after all, I won`t be there
Knowin` what I know, knowin` I`ve got to go
Knowin` what I know
That I don`t believe, and I can`t conceive
Now I just can`t see you no more
