Long Way Home
Deadline Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We ain't going home yet, we have loads more fun to have
We got ten more shows to play 'cause we're out on the road
And it's a long journey home, it's a long long way to go home
Back at home I'll miss my friends, I'll miss all my friends down the front
The kids who shout for more, we don't wanna say goodbye
Soon we'll be back at the white cliffs where the blue birds fly
But it's a long journey home, it's a long long way to go home
It's the last show of the tour and everyone's singing along
We don't wanna finish the song 'cause then it is all over




It's a long journey home, it's a long long way to go home
