Long, Long Way - Smalltown Poets

Long, Long Way Lyrics

This is the hard part
Stopping to ask for directions
Sketching with these dirty colors
Just where I amYou might have heard me
Artfully dodging the buzz word
And scoffing at your insinuation
Of just where I amI'm a long, long way
From where I left to begin this refrain
From where your mercy and grace remain
From where you sit is it true
It's not that far to youIt happened slowly
Feet falling hard on the pavement
Eyes reaching into the distance
Toward empty sunsetsAnd I'm a long, long way
From where I left to begin this refrain
From where your mercy and grace remain
From where you sit is it true
It's not that far to youDidn't I need to break out, want to be king

Wouldn't I face the gallows if I return
Or is a man freely pardoned
As I have heardPrecious Jesus
Where can I flee from your spirit
You know me too wellAnd I'm a long, long way
From where I left to begin this refrain
From where your mercy and grace remain
From where you sit is it true
It's not that far to youAnd I'm a long, long way
From where I left to begin this refrain
From where your mercy and grace remain
From where you sit is it true
It's not that far to you
