[00:22.24]Oh Lord, I made it through,
[00:25.74]I'm gonna lay down my load,
[00:29.43]One more mile or two,
[00:32.78]Can't escape from my fate, no,
[00:36.24]Long is the way,
[00:39.65]Long is the way,
[00:43.05]Long is the way,
[00:46.45]Long is the way.
[01:04.18]All clad in silk and gold,
[01:07.91]I have seen kings and their queens,
[01:11.49]With just one single golden thread,
[01:14.99]I could have woven dreams,
[01:18.97]I've dug for gold, it's true,
[01:22.38]And those kings granted loans,
[01:25.58]But I'm still empty-handed,
[01:29.22]Now I'm heading home,
[01:32.69]Long is the way
[01:36.18]Long is the way
[01:39.59]Long is the way
[01:42.92]Long is the way
[02:00.97]Set sail long ago
[02:04.42]Pledged to fortune and fame
[02:10.25]And the woman that I will face
[02:11.75]Shoulders bent in shame
[02:15.29]Almost hope that she broke
[02:18.52]Solemn promise she made to me
[02:22.10]Save her hand for a rich man
[02:25.22]In vain, in vain, for me
[02:29.12]Long is the way
[02:32.47]Long is the way
[02:36.05]Long is the way
[02:39.28]Long is the way
[03:11.72]There's a car coming this way
[03:15.07]It's the first in a line
[03:18.68]With a sense of foreboding
[03:22.04]I try to see inside
[03:25.82]My eyes meet through the bridal veil
[03:29.14]Those that I left behind
[03:32.77]Both our hearts have stopped beating
[03:36.35]Two promises have died
[03:39.78]Long is the way
[03:43.17]Long is the way
[03:46.52]Long is the way
[03:50.02]Long is the way
