Been Away Too Long lyrics

You can't go home

No I swear you never can

You can walk a million miles and get nowhere

I got nowhere to go ever since I came back

Just filling in the lines from the holes to the cracks

And no one knows me

No one saves me

No one loves or hates me

I've been away for too long

This place has a sṗecial kind of falling apart

Like they put the whole thing together in the dark

And no one knows where the edge of the knife is

And no one knows what intelligent life is

No one knows me

No one saves me

No one loves or hates me

But it's fate

I only ever really wanted a break

I've been away for too long

Though I never really wanted to stay

I've been away for too long

I've been away for too long

I've been away for too long

Kilos through key-holes

Widows through windows

Pilots through eyelets

Everyone is silent

Tankards and flagons and snifters and flutes

On my way home

But it's fate

I only ever really wanted a break

I've been away for too long

Though I never really wanted to stay

I've been away...

But it's fate

I only ever really wanted a break

I've been away for too long

Though I never really wanted to stay

I've been away for too long
