John Warren: Away so long lyrics

John Warren

Away so long

Oh I've been away so long

From the place where I belong

From the love that sees me through

Oh baby how I'm missing you

Looking at the people walking

I double-take 'cause I thought I saw you

But it's just my mind

Messing with me

A mirage in this desert of loneliness

A job to do, that's what I'm here for

Hard work never hurt anyone

Still I wish I weren't

So far away from I'm working for

Do you understand

This is really what I'm going through

Baby I'm your man

And I do what I must do

Oh I've been away so long

From the place where I belong

From the love that sees me through

Oh baby how I'm missing you

Just as my luck would have it

Held over for another day

And the nights grow cold

It's harder to sleep

With a vision of you runing deep

A second-guessing of my purpose

Does the end justify the means

It was all so clear

Home with you

Back to where you keep it straight for me

Do you understand

This is really what I'm going through

Baby I'm your man

And I do what I must do

Oh I've been away so long

From the place where I belong

From the love that sees me through

Oh baby how I'm missing you
