A Long Way Home Lyrics - 1998

[ Buy A Long Way Home ]

(dwight yoakam)

I think that i will just take a memory
A small one that i know real well, then go

What i'll take is all the happy thoughts i can recall
But i know there won't be much that i can bear to touch

Chorus:
So i'll just take what my mind can stand
'cause there's not a lot that you can hold
In trembling hands

Just these last few hopeful things that we left lay
Then quickly leave before any more
Get in my way

Chorus:
So i'll just take what my mind can stand
'cause there's not a lot that you can hold
In trembling hands
