Long Way Home — текст песни (The Monkees)

The other night I took the long way home
Out past the old schoolyard
It`s funny how you keep it all inside
Dreams they do die hard

I closed my eyes and I could see your face
Somewhere back in time
One summer night a million miles ago
Back when you were mine

Say yes, say no, say that I`m grabbing at shadows
But don`t carve the words in stone
I know it`s late
But can`t you see I was only
Taking the long way home

Sometimes its easy to get all wrapped up
In trying to be free
And all those dreams I sailed away to find
Were right in front of me

Say yes, say no, say that I`m grabbing at shadows
But don`t carve the words in stone
One of these days
You`re gonna see I was only
Taking the long way home

Although the letters stopped many years ago
I`ll show you even time could not keep this heart
from letting go

The other night I took the long way home
Out past the old schoolyard
It`s funny how you keep it all inside
Dreams they do die hard

Say yes, say no, say that I`m grabbing at shadows
But don`t leave me here all alone
One of these days
You`re gonna see I was only
Taking the long way home

Say yes, say no
But don`t leave me here all alone
One of these days
You`re gonna see I was only
Taking the long way home
[repeat]
