Long Road Home

Teach me the golden rule
Make me a lovesick fool
In the light of day, let sorrow drift away
Crown of thorns has many jewels
Songs of glory sung in hate
Only destroy what love has made
And if the kingdom comes, don’t wanna be the one
That is standing in the way
Sure as the wind blows
Sure as the rivers flow
We will meet again
On the long road home
They say they’ve seen His face
They say He’s called their name
I have heard their lies, heard the people’s cries
Time has come, it’s getting late
All the stories I have heard
Enlightened ones who walked the earth
They bring me sweet relief, rid me of human grief
I am free from every hurt
Sure as the wind blows
Sure as the rivers flow
We will meet again
On the long road home
Doesn’t matter if you’re right or wrong
You hear Sylvester sing a simple song
What they’ve been saying for, oh, so long
Because love and happiness is what’s going on
Sure as the wind blows
Sure as the rivers flow
We will meet again
On the long road home
