Standing in this place I used to know so well
I came here looking for my past
Doesn't seem like long ago since I was here
Looking for my future in a glass
The water must have flowed so fast under the bridge
I never thought I'd ever change
But I don't feel like I belong here anymore
Like coming back to read a book when someone's turned the page
I guess I was wrong when I thought that everything would be the same
And I wonder who's to blame?
Chorus:
Oh it's like someone changed the lock upon my door
And I don't think that I'll be back no more
From the moment I stepped out alone
On the street I was born in, I'm a long way from home
I guess I'm a long way from home
And as the days grow by I feel the distance grow
I know it's no good looking back
But this isolation's like the cold wind in my face
I'm not complaining but I know that it's a fact
I've done a lot of things in my life that people never get to do
But I'm feeling so removed
Oh it's like someone changed the lock upon my door
And I don't think I'm welcome here no more
From the moment I stepped out alone
On the street I was born in, I'm a long way from home
I guess I'm a long way from home
(Solo)
I guess I was wrong when I thought that everything would be the same
So can you tell me who's to blame?
chorus
I'm a long way from home, I guess I'm a long way from home
I came here looking for my past
Doesn't seem like long ago since I was here
Looking for my future in a glass
The water must have flowed so fast under the bridge
I never thought I'd ever change
But I don't feel like I belong here anymore
Like coming back to read a book when someone's turned the page
I guess I was wrong when I thought that everything would be the same
And I wonder who's to blame?
Chorus:
Oh it's like someone changed the lock upon my door
And I don't think that I'll be back no more
From the moment I stepped out alone
On the street I was born in, I'm a long way from home
I guess I'm a long way from home
And as the days grow by I feel the distance grow
I know it's no good looking back
But this isolation's like the cold wind in my face
I'm not complaining but I know that it's a fact
I've done a lot of things in my life that people never get to do
But I'm feeling so removed
Oh it's like someone changed the lock upon my door
And I don't think I'm welcome here no more
From the moment I stepped out alone
On the street I was born in, I'm a long way from home
I guess I'm a long way from home
(Solo)
I guess I was wrong when I thought that everything would be the same
So can you tell me who's to blame?
chorus
I'm a long way from home, I guess I'm a long way from home
