It's a long way, ah, it's a long way A long way, a long way It's a long way to be happy I just don't know if I can take it It's a long way to be happy I wonder if I'm gonna make it Nothing I do seems like any fun to me You just don't know what losing him has done to me It's the middle of June but it feels like December So little to look forward to and so much to remember It's a long time to smile again I just don't know if I can do it It's a long time to smile again I wonder if I'm gonna get through it I got to find a way to get a hold on myself again Before I even try to give my love to someone else again There are tears to be cried, I'm too close to remember No tears can be born until the old ones have given It's a long way, ah, it's a long way A long way, a long way
