Long Way

I'm not gonna say that I'm sorry

Don't you judge me 'cause I gotta have it my way

Heaven have mercy on me,

Send an angel or leave me alone

Cause I am a long way from home



It is a long way from home

But it just don't matter to me

Heaven have mercy on me on the day that I die,

For I'm nothing more but a human, you see



Don't knock on my door as a stranger

Lean in closely to tear off a piece of my soul

Take it and waste it away

Like the ocean turns ashes to foam

And pulls our emotions into the unknown



It is a long way from home

(it is along way from home)

But it doesn't matter to me

(I'm gonna do what I please)

Heaven have mercy on me on the day that I fold

As long as I don't have to beg on my knees



It is a long way from home

(it is a long way from home)

But it doesn't matter to me

(Won't see me begging oh please)

Heaven have mercy on me on the day that I fold

But until that day I will do what I, do what I



Heaven's a long way from home

(heaven's a long way from home)

But it doesn't matter to me

(It doesn't matter to me)

Won't you have mercy on me on the day that I fold

But until that day I will do what I please
