I was talking to a friend about a friend of mine
Someone I knew that was lost in time
Shes here today
Can I make her stay
Talking about how she’s already found everything
Happy with her day to day of time
How do I say hello
How do I find my way
And my friend said there will be no easy way to where you want to be
You’re going to find it getting harder every day
You’ll want run
You’re going to cry
You’re going to wonder why
But you’ve got to give things time to play on through
Everything she says I read so much into
And it can mean so much in so many ways
What did she say
What did she mean
She stopped me again and brought me back to my reality
It isn’t as personal as you’re going to make it be
You’re going to anyway
But I hope you understand
You can’t live life in a day
Sometimes you have to take the long way home
Do you have what it takes to take the long way home
Laughing a little on the inside I knew
Day by day would get me through day by day
There’s no other way
Now I understand
You can’t live life in a day
Sometimes you have to take the long way home
