I was chasing my tail Going round and round Had to zag had to zig Get all broke down Lost and tossed Lotta dead wrong turns Down a chain linked alley Had to shift into reverse Been a long time gone Been a slow train coming But I'm coming Been a long time running Running straight to you Been a long time lost Been too much of nothing Too much nothing Been a long time running Running straight to you ♪ They're hitting the floor Praying "Help me please" Lord it's hard to stumble When you're down on your knees Such low and high Till low and behold Saw your bright star showing me The way to go, whoa! Been a long time gone Been a slow train coming But I'm coming Been a long time running Running straight to you Been a long time lost Been too much of nothing Too much nothing Been a long time running Running straight to you ♪ Oh you shine so bright Turn night to day Keep the fire burning Never lose my way, yeah Been a long time gone Been a slow train coming But I'm coming Been a long time running Running straight to you Been a long time gone Been a slow train coming But I'm coming Been a long time running Running straight to you Been a long time lost Been too much of nothing Too much nothing Been a long time running Running straight to you Straight to you Running straight to you
