A LONG WAY AWAY FROM ME

 

Well, I don't really worry about the drugs

But I worry all the time about your drinking

And it got me thinking; perhaps you don't know what you are doing

And even if you do, you should know that wherever it leads you to

It will be a long, long, long, long way away from me

Well, I don't really worry about the days

But I worry all the time about your nights

And I wonder if you really, really think that you are getting it right

Well, even if you do, you should know that wherever it leads you to

It will be a long, long, long, long way away from me

Well, I worked forty days and forty nights

On the gargoyle on your cathedral

To put something small and ugly high upon your big and beautiful

To crack and fall someday, but never fly away

A long, long, long, long way away from me
