Take The Long Way Home (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I lift you off the earth mundane and glum
Out of solar system where you passed the sun
‘Til all the fear in your hart is gone and so on

Walking trough the world with no pressure
Inner peace beyond measure
I was leaving where it came in
When a man said stop
I want to have what you have
and get what you got

I got it sleeping rough on the streets in the rain
I got it learning to share my peoples pain
I got it making flowers grow in hearts of stone
I got it ‘cos I always take thee long way home

I’ve been walking trough the world with no pressure
As fresher full of vigour life becomes my mirror
The further I go the more I know
Oh yeah, wherever the wind blow I’ll be there

Turned up in places that I never intended to go
And so ended my youth I once deepended on proof
Now I’m in the flow, there I things I know beyond knowing
I’ve seen a seed growing, I was going back home
When a man said stop, I want to have what you have
And get what you got

I got it sleeping rough on the streets in the rain
I got it learning to share my peoples pain
I got it making flowers grow in hearts of stone
I got it ‘cos I always take thee long way home

I got it sleepin’ rough on the streets in the rain
I got it learning to share my people’s pain
I got it makin’ flowers, growin’ hearts of stone
I got it ‘cause I always took the long way home
I got it sleepin’ rough on the streets in the rain
I got it learning to share my people’s pain
I got it makin’ flowers, growin’ hearts of stone
[filtered rumbling, incomprehensible voice]

May I have your attention please?
May I have your attention please?

Did you ever read Voltaire’s "Candide"?
He says live life at Benny Hill freak out speed
Not a quote of what he wrote but a paraphrase
Make it up as you go Keyser Soze
Highlights yes but don’t underline ‘em
Just live for N.O.W. like Gloria Steinem
Life is like Marion Barry
It’s not all that it’s cracked up to be
Like Fred Sanford when the big one comes
Find the meaning of life is there is none
It’s twenty-four hours when you call it a day
Be Frank and say "I Did It My Way"
Don’t give a flying nun no don’t give a Gidget
Just have more fun than a well-oiled midget
If life were picture perfect you could frame it
But the world is a diaper so let someone else change it

Life is an aimless drive that ya take alone
Might as well enjoy the ride, take the long way home

May I have your attention please?
May I have your attention please?

All born equal unless you’re Canadian
Then halfway through decay like Uranium
You define what’s death-defying
Get the most out of life or at the least die trying
Are you Evil Knievel jumping a train?
Or running with scissors like Frasier Crane?
Have really good times doing really bad things
‘Cause the show ain’t over ‘til the fat lady sings
Like Elton John with his candle in the wind
It’s hard to blow out a flame as big as him
But we’ve all got to Wang Chung with the Grim Reaper
Whether you’re Einstein whether you’re Beaker
Death is certain so it’s definitely worth flirtin’
Don’t expect a bright light no just curtains
Life is like a penis most people don’t know it
But most people suck so they usually blow it

Life is an aimless drive that ya take alone
Might as well enjoy the ride take the long way home

Life is an aimless drive that ya take alone
Might as well enjoy the ride take the long way home

That’s enough!
I said that’s enough!
