Long Way From, Long Time Since Lyrics
Dear Father, how long have you gone
without speaking to your first-born son?
(He's well, she's fine)
I'm better still
Still looking good
On everything I said I would
(He's well, she's fine)
Deafened by the silent sound
The walls you built not falling down
(He's well, she's fine)
Close your eyes
Don't open them until the morning sunshine
I'll be waiting
Shave the dead weight from your face
To find a new life to take it's place
(Go now, move on)
Dad, I know how hard it's been
To feel like you inside your skin
(Go now, move on)
without speaking to your first-born son?
(He's well, she's fine)
I'm better still
Still looking good
On everything I said I would
(He's well, she's fine)
Deafened by the silent sound
The walls you built not falling down
(He's well, she's fine)
Don't open them until the morning sunshine
I'll be waiting
To find a new life to take it's place
(Go now, move on)
Dad, I know how hard it's been
To feel like you inside your skin
(Go now, move on)
this song is nice to fall asleep to...i never knew it was directed towards his dad though (?)
Yeah, I know what you mean. I could listen to the outro for eternity.
how could you not know it was directed towards his dad? "dear father...."
It's Long WAY From, Long Time Since.
