Long Way Back Again

(album: A Date With The Smithereens - 1994)

Not hurting anyone
That's all she had to say
I'm only having fun
They just got in the way
Did it much matter then
Tell me, I need to know
The things that they made me do
The way that I had to go

Long way back again
Oh yeah

Listening to her right now
Not listening anyhow
The girl's got some things to say
Won't listen anyway
Why does it have to be?
Why do they need to know?
She put them down one by one
She put on a real good show

Long way back again

Once she believed in love so fine
She won't be understanding this time
She's just beginning to grow
Voices keep going around in my head
They keep on singing this song
I still can't understand what they said
I know they come from below

Not hurting anyone
That's all she had to say
I was just having fun
They just got in the way
Did it much matter then
Tell me, I need to know
The things that they made me do
The way that I had to go

Long way back again
Long way back again
Long way back again
Long way back again
Long way back
Let's go

Long way back again
Long way back again
Long way back again
Long way back again
