THE LONG WALK HOME (DECEMBER) Picking up the pieces As I wander through the rain We've made it through to the other side Now we're allowed to feel the pain December looms before us and the nights grow cold and grey And it wears the shroud of tragedy Still it fails to hide it's shame Casting off the shadows That eclipse the morning rays There's no way back from misery Until you put the past away If I could see behind your eyes what words do not betray We would save us both a little time And could cast aside these chains But under your spell my will it just melts away There's no way I can escape I'm taken to another plane As I wait for the night to fall Dragged onward into the end I submit to your embrace Not sure if I will endure The cold on this long walk home... For the Long walk home... Leaving all behind We take the long way back To a better time in another world In a lost and distant past I never thought that I Ever write these words Never thought that i'd Write the final verse Leaving all behind Leaving all behind Write the final verse...
