Lyrics

LONG ROAD

It's a long road far out and away
Saturn rings
Another patch on your faded jeans appeared today
Geometric patterns ring
Throwing up straws to the wind
Well ain't that always how this begins
It's a long road

Waylaid on some fool parade
No can do
The hours ahead were always yours to make
Muddling through
Never needed anything that much
Arranged around this obvious pulse
Waylaid
Waylaid

What to believe
What to believe for sure
I just don't know anymore

It's a long road

It's a long road far out and away
Saturn rings
Another patch on your faded jeans appeared today
Geometric patterns ring
Throwing up straws to the wind
Well ain't that always how this begins
It's a long road
It's a long road
It's a long road
It's long
