bruce springsteen - long walk home lyrics

last night i stood at your doorstep
trying to figure out what went wrong
you just slipped something into my palm and you were gone

i could smell the same deep green of summer
‘bove me the same night sky was glowin’
in the distance i could see the town where i was born

it’s gonna be a long walk home
hey pretty darling, don’t wait up for me
gonna be a long walk home
a long walk home

in town i p-ss sal’s grocery
barber shop on south street
i looked in their faces-
they’re all rank strangers to me-
well veteran’s hall high upon the hill
stood silent and alone
the diner was shuttered and boarded
with a sign that just said “gone”

[guitar break]
[sax break]

here everybody has a neighbor
everybody has a friend
everybody has a reason to begin again

my father said “son, we’re lucky in this town,
it’s a beautiful place to be born.
it just wraps its arms around you,
n-body crowds you and n-body goes it alone”

“your flag flyin’ over the courthouse
means certain things are set in stone.
who we are, what we’ll do and what we won’t”

it’s gonna be a long walk home
hey pretty darling, don’t wait up for me
gonna be a long walk home
hey pretty darling, don’t wait up for me
gonna be a long walk home
it’s gonna be a long walk home
it’s gonna be a long walk home
hey pretty darling, don’t wait up for me
gonna be a long walk home
hey pretty darling, don’t wait up for me
gonna be a long walk home
it’s gonna be a long walk home
it’s gonna be a long walk home

[guitar break]
[sax break]
