Lyrics:
It was 1989, my thoughts were short my hair was long
Caught somewhere between a boy and man
She was seventeen and she was far from in-between
It
'til you die
All you children goin' my way
Better tell your home-life sweet goodbye
When I see a detour up ahead
I leave it far behind
Who knows
What if I'm far from home?
Oh brother, I will hear you call
Hey, brother
There's an endless road to rediscover
Hey, sister
Know the water's
Got a brother named Frankie, Frankie ain't no good
Well, ever since we were young kids it's been the same come down
I'd get a call on a short way
Everybody's going out
And having fun (having fun)
I'm just a fool for staying home
And having none (having none)
I can't get over
How she set
Everybody's going out
And having fun (having fun)
I'm just a fool for staying home
And having none (having none)
I can't get over
How she set
bring me home?
When I am an old man and live by the sea
Will all your thoughts fly to me?
When I'm far away from the places we've known
Will all
Don’t listen to what they say
We’re gonna go far, my brother said,
Sail the sunsets, See the skies
Only we can change the times,
With my brother by my
I always knew that you would take yourself far from home
As soon as, as far as you could go.
By the 1/4 inch cut of your hair and the Army issue
wonder?
Oh, if the sky comes falling down, on you
There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do
What if I'm far from home?
Oh, brother, I will hear you call
will greet ya
Billy, you're so far away from home.
There's eyes behind the mirrors in empty places
Bullet holes and scars between the spaces
far?
Dream away
There must be some other way
A hundred years from green to grey
Close my eyes I'm safe today
Blindly fade away
Gone too far
In
for her traveler so far from home
She sits by the fireside, the room is so warm
There's ice on the window, she's lonely alone
He was on his way home from Candletop
Been two weeks gone and he thought he'd stop
At Web's and have him a drink 'fore he went home to her
Andy
Daddy's in the hallway
Hanging pictures on the wall
And Mama's in the kitchen
Making casseroles for all
My brother came home yesterday
From
Miguel came from a small town in northern Mexico.
He came north with his brother Louis to California three years ago
They crossed at the river
peace!
Silent night! Holy night!
God's Son laughs, o how bright.
Love from your holy lips shines clear,
As the dawn of salvation draws near,
Jesus,
went to a crossing, not very far from there
And there they did the same
For the agent on his knees delivered up the keys
To the outlaws, Frank an'
in glory
When He comes down from His home in the sky (I can't stand it)
Then we shall meet Him in that bright mansion
We'll understand it by and by
Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
I dreamed about them cotton fields of home
I dreamed about my mother, dear old pappy, sister and brother
brother, we're a long way from home
And we need each other, have no fear, you're welcome here
Come share the wine
It's so nice and warm in here, we're
of a home
There's a town they call Tombstone where the brave never cry
They live by a sixgun by a sixgun they die
It's been a long time now since
My heart is beating from me
I am standing all alone
Please call me only if you are coming home
Waste another year flies by
Waste a night or two
long
Two million soldiers can't be wrong
Its no fun but I've been here before
I'm far from home and I'm fighting your war
(Not the way I pictured
