The road is long and dusty, stretching out for miles.
I’ve been walking since the sunrise, trying to find my smile.
Every step I’m taking carries memories of you,
But I’m learning how to live now with what I gotta do.
It’s a long—
A long way home through the fire and the rain.
A long way home through the joy and through the pain.
But I’m gonna keep on walking till I see the light of day.
It’s a long, long way…
But I’m finding my way.
I gave you all my goodness, put your needs before my own.
Now I’m picking up the pieces of this heart you left alone.
There’s a voice inside me whispering, “You’re stronger than you know.”
So I’m listening to that rhythm, letting courage start to grow.
It’s a long way home
Through the fire and the rain.
A long way home
Through the joy and through the pain.
But I’m gonna keep on walking till I see the light of day.
It’s a long way home—
Step by step, oh yes…
Sometimes a journey breaks you before it makes you whole.
Sometimes you gotta lose yourself to finally save your soul.
But know that I am ready—
God, I’m so ready now.
It’s a long way home
Through the fire and the rain.
Through it all—
A long way home through the doubt and through the pain.
And I’m still walking,
I can see the light of day.
It’s a long way home…
But I found my way—
Yes, I did.
Oh, I found my way home.
Long way home… so long,
But I’m here now.
So long…
But I’m here now.
I’m finally home.
