The Lumineers - Long Way From Home

[00:12.03] Held on to hope like a noose, like a rope [00:18.13] God and medicine take no mercy on him [00:24.24] Poisoned his blood, and burned out his throat [00:30.57] Enough is enough, he's a long way from home [00:37.01] [00:41.15] Days of my youth wasted on a selfish fool [00:46.99] Who ran for the hills from the hand you were dealt [00:53.18] I flew far away, as far as I could go [00:58.93] Your time is running out [01:01.76] And I'm a long way from home [01:05.54] [01:15.80] Laid up in bed, you were laid up in bed [01:21.87] Holding the pain like you're holding your breath [01:27.78] I prayed you could sleep, sleep like a stone [01:33.91] You're right next to me [01:36.47] But you're a long way from home [01:40.41] [01:50.40] Hospital gowns never fit like they should [01:56.45] We yelled at the nurse, didn't do any good [02:02.54] More morphine, the last words you moaned [02:08.55] At last, I was sure [02:11.07] That you weren't far away from home [02:14.87]
