I left home a long, long time ago

In a tin can for the road with a suitcase and some songs

Chasing miles through the nighttime making tracks

With no time for looking back to the place where I belong How these days grow long

But I'm on my way back home

It's been hard to be away How I miss you and I just wanna kiss you

And I'm gonna love you till my dying day

How these days grow long When you're sad, you know I wish I could be there

To make your sorrows disappear and set your troubles free

It's not fair for me to be this far from you

But I promise to stay true wherever I might be Time keeps burning

The wheels keep on turning sometimes

I feel I'm wasting my day How I miss you and I just wanna kiss you

And I'm gonna love you till my dying day How these days grow long

Time keeps burning on

How these days grow long Now I'm lost in a sea of sunken dreams

While the sound of drunken screams echoes in the night

But I know all of this will come to pass

And I'll be with you at last, forever by your side How these days grow long

But I'm on my way back home

It's been hard to be away How I miss you and I just wanna kiss you

And I'm gonna love you till my dying day And time keeps burning

The wheels keep on turning sometimes

I feel I'm wasting my day How I miss you and I just want to kiss you

And I'm gonna love you till my dying day How these days grow long

Time keeps burning on

How these days grow long
