Tony Carey The Long Road
She was lost out on the highway
The queen of the broken hearts club
She had tried it and tried it his way
'Cause her way was never good enough
Seven riders went down to the water
Seven riderless horses returned
Seven times she had bought sold or bartered
And she thought as her life crashed and burned
"I'll take the long road tonight' (take the long road tonight)
Take the long road tonight
There were wide-open spaces here
Where the wide-open dreams never died
There were green-field oases here
And a stone-cold heart pushed them aside
Seven times there were arrows that missed her
Seven tears had all dried on her cheeks
And her dreams were like children within her
She had not thought to feed them for weeks
On the long road tonight
And there was something about him
That never felt right
And something just shattered
And sent her down the long road tonight
(On the long road tonight)
She's on the long road tonight
(On the long road tonight)
Well it’s a lonely, lonely road
It’s a lonely lonely road
(On the long road tonight)
It’s a lonely lonely road
It’s a long road
It’s a lonely lonely road
(On the long road tonight)
It’s a lonely lonely road tonight
It’s a long road tonight
(On the long road tonight)
Hit the road baby
Hit the road baby
(On the long road tonight)
It don’t get any better than this baby
(On the long road tonight)
