Guardian - Long Way Home Lyrics
I was five years oldWhen they came and took my daddy away.Momma said, "He'll be back home a year from today.I know you're young but I hope you understand,These are the kind of things that happen to a man."... oooooh...I see her talkin' but I can't hear nothing;Sweet salvation cover me.Refrain:Take me where I long to be,Pick up and carry me;Oh, I need your loveIt's such a long way home.Even though I fall sometimes,Nothing here can change my mind.Lord, I need your love,It's such a long way home.Daddy cried,"Boy you'd better come home right now.Momma's gone,Sicknesstook her down.I know you're young,But I hope you understand,These are the kind of things that happen to a man."... ooooh...I see him talkin' but I don't hear nothin';Lookin' round but I can't see.I touch fear but I feel nothin';Sweet salvation cover me.(Refrain)All this pain locked up inside of me,On my knees I prayed you'd set me free."I know you hurt,But I really do understand;I'm the one who held your pain when I became a man."Speak to me so I hear something,Turn my eyes so I can see.You touch fear and I feel something,Sweet salvation cover me.(Refrain)
