Long Way From Home

(album: Provocative - 1993)

Sometimes it burns like, like a fire, yeah
Love has a mind of, a mind of its own
Don't let it stop your, your desire, mmm
Baby, don't end up, end up alone

Stop where you are
Look to your heart
Don't be afraid, don't throw love away
Don't get burned by your heart

'Cause you're a long, long way from home
You need a man of your own
Keeping you warm
'Cause you're a long, long way from home
You need to hurry back home
Let me keep you warm, hey, hey

Sometimes it feels like life's over, yeah
You know when it feel like everything's wrong
Don't let it take you, take you under
Baby, don't end up, end up alone

Stop where you are
Look to your heart
Don't be afraid, don't throw love away
Don't get burned by your heart

'Cause you're a long, long way from home
You need a man of your own
Keeping you warm
'Cause you're a long, long way, way from home, yeah
Yeah, you better hurry on back home, yeah
Let me, let me keep you warm, yeah

I know that at times it doesn't seem fair
Those are times when you don't even care
Broken heart, shattered dreams
Without love, tell me what does it mean

Stop it, baby, right where you are
Don't let it go, go too far
Stop it, stop it, right where you are
You're a long way from home, yeah...

'Cause you're a long, long way home
You need, oh, yes, you're gonna need someone to hold on to
You're gonna need someone to keep you warm
And I wanna be right there by your side
I don't ever wanna let you go, let you go, let you, let you go, baby
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurr-hurr-hurry
Oh, don't too long, baby

Stop where you are
Look to your heart
Don't be afraid, don't throw love away
Don't get burned by your heart

'Cause you're a long, long way home
You need a man, all you really need someone to hold on
Someone that's gonna love you
Someone that's gonna keep you warm all night long
You see, not a train, not car, not a plane
Not a boat's gonna bring me back home, baby
You gotta hurry back home, you come on
Get some of this, get some of this, get some of this
Good-good-good loving
You need to hurry, yeah, yeah, oh
You're a long, long way, yeah
