a little after midnight
i feel a little alright
looking through the back page
she looks a little underagetry to keep a secret
try to magnify the sun
gotta get down to mexico
and get a few things donebut its a long way
a long long way to
try to get somewhere
you don't even knowyeah its a long way
a long long way to go
and then you're donehere in my brain
french sweater girls in the pouring rain
you walk through the lovebeast
like a hippie revivalyour eyes on a minorflip
take some time
dont let it slip
you're an old familiar song
that i just can't rememberand its a long way
a long long way to
try to get somewhere
you don't even knowyeah its a long way
a long long way to go
and then you're done
then you're donein a late marble car
in her mamas red coat
painting on mark bills
and the bad checks are roadtry to keep a secret
try to magnify the sun
gotta get down to mexico
and get a few things donebut its a long way
a long long way to
try to get somewhere
you don't even knowyeah its a long way
a long long way to go
yeah its a long way
it's a long long way
