The Long Walk Home

.

Baby

You can pack away the moon

And pour away the ocean

You can take apart the sun

And run from everyone

You can blow out all the stars

But I know the day will come

When love unchains your soul

And you'll take the long walk home

.

Hello baby

Haven't seen you for a while

There's a shadow on your face

A lie in your smile

You sent the world away

Everything's just fine

But there's a cry for help

Behind your eyes

.

Baby

You can pack away the moon

And pour away the ocean

You can take apart the sun

And run from everyone

You can blow out all the stars

But I know the day will come

When love unchains your soul

And you'll take the long walk home

.

Another 5 A.M.

The cancer crawls

And you're pressed against

An invisible wall

And all the bottles are dry

And the CD's stuck

Keep hearing Johnny sing

All you need is love

.

Baby

You can pack away the moon

And pour away the ocean

You can take apart the sun

And run from everyone

You can blow out all the stars

But I know the day will come

When love unchains your soul

And you'll take the long walk home

.

And you can sleep the longest night

I believe you'll wake in time

To open the window wide

And breathe the brilliant light

.

Baby

You can pack away the moon

And pour away the ocean

You can take apart the sun

And run from everyone

You can blow out all the stars

But I know the day will come

When love unchains your soul

And you'll take the long walk home

.

Baby

You can light the fires of hell

And wrestle with the angels

You can pull down heaven's blue

And tear yourself in two

Before we blow each candle out

Reach into the dark

There'll be a hand to hold

And we'll take the long walk home

.

Baby gonna walk so slow

Through the clear white snow

I won't let your soul be broken

.

Baby gonna walk so slow

Through the clear white snow

I won't let your soul be broken

Yeah
