I left home a long long time ago

In a tin can for the road

With a suitcase and some songs

Chasing miles through the night time

Making tracks with no time for looking back

To the place where I belong.

How these days grow long

But I'm on my way back home

It's been hard to be away

How I miss you and I just want to kiss you

And I'm gonna love you till my dying day

How these days grow long.

When your sad you know I wish I could be there

To make your sorrows disappear

And set your troubles free

It's not fair for me to be this far from you

But I promise to stay true, wherever I might be.

Time keeps burning

The wheels keep on turning

Sometimes I feel I'm wasting my days

How I miss you and I just want to kiss you

And I'm gonna love you till my dying day

How these days grow long

Time keeps burning on

How these days grow long.

Now I'm lost in a sea of sunken dreams

While the sound of drunken screams echos in the night

But I know all of this will come to pass

And I'll be with you at last forever by your side.

How these days grow long

But I'm on my way back home

It's been hard to be away

How I miss you and I just want to kiss you

And I'm gonna love you till my dying day.

Time keeps burning

The wheels keep on turning

Sometimes I feel I'm wasting my days

How I miss you and I just want to kiss you

And I'm gonna love you till my dying day

How these days grow long

Time keeps burning on

How these days grow long.
