[00:12.54] Dark highways and the country roads
[00:16.94] Don’t scare you like they did
[00:22.58] The woods and winds, they’ll welcome you
[00:26.22] To the places you once hid
[00:34.48] You grew up and you moved away
[00:38.94] Across a foreign see
[00:44.43] And what was left was what was kept
[00:48.00] That’s what you gave to me
[00:56.09] You thought you left it all behind
[00:58.46]
[01:01.47] You thought you’d up and gone
[01:06.50] When all you did was figure out
[01:11.35] How to take the long way home
[01:16.19]
[01:28.36] The southern rain was heavy
[01:33.07] Almost heavy as your heart
[01:38.92] A cavalcade of strangers came
[01:42.47] To tear your world apart
[01:49.89] The bells of old Saint Mary’s
[01:54.78] And now the cling of charcoal hill
[02:00.72] And you took the old religion folk
[02:04.59] I won’t be home again
[02:12.62] You thought you left it all behind
[02:18.06] You thought you’d up and gone
[02:22.93] When all you did was figure out
[02:27.65] How to take the long way home
[02:34.46] You thought you left it all behind
[02:39.81] You thought you’d up and gone
[02:44.74] When all you did was figure out
[02:49.55] How to take the long way home
[02:53.59]
[03:05.27] The long way home…
[00:12.54] Dark highways and the country roads
[00:16.94] Don' t scare you like they did
[00:22.58] The woods and winds, they' ll welcome you
[00:26.22] To the places you once hid
[00:34.48] You grew up and you moved away
[00:38.94] Across a foreign see
[00:44.43] And what was left was what was kept
[00:48.00] That' s what you gave to me
[00:56.09] You thought you left it all behind
[00:58.46]
[01:01.47] You thought you' d up and gone
