It's a long way back home
To pack up and leave again

Together alone
You without me again


It's a long way back home
And a long way back here again
I should have known

That you would just bleed again

[Chorus]

For the first time I knew what to do
The first time it's just me and you
Then the worst timing I ever knew

I have to go
I already know


It's a long way back home
To feel like I'm far away
And how should I know

What goes on here anyway?

[Chorus]


Why not spend a week on a star
No time, he can't get there by car

When we get some time on our own
We'll plan out our next day alone


It's a long way back home
To just about anywhere
'Cause once through the door

We're not even halfway there

For the first time I knew what to do

The first time it's just me and you
Then the worst timing I ever knew
I have to go

You already know

It's a long way back home

It's a long way back home
