brent bourgeois – a long way from home lyrics
as the last burst of sunlight peeked over the sea
and the wind and the cold water purified me
a cleansing of body as old ocean rolls
though i can’t say the same for my poor wretched soul
well it’s been seven years since i first left my girl
i’ve wandered and traveled all over the world
but i still haven’t found one as perfect as she
i don’t know what the devil has come over me
i’m a long way from home
but home is where my heart is telling me to go
yeah, i’m a long way from home
now if i had a nickel for ever time that i said:
“i’m coming home soon” well i could retire
with pride in my pocket i lay down and pray
for the spirits and demons to be swept away
now be still for a moment so i can explain
i’m a drifter of oceans, a runaway train
it would ne’er do your heart well to tangle with me
alone i arrived here, alone i shall leave
i’m a long way from home
but home is where my heart is telling me to go
i’m a long way from home
home, home
at the first ray of sunlight i’m back on my feet
it’s good to move early in the tropical heat
a prodigal son with the whole world to roam
yet she will always remind me i’m a long way from home
