Taking the Long Way Home

from The Solo Sessions by Joshua Putney

/

lyrics

It's so bucolic and in a way it's not so bad

Tucked in the middle of the heartland

The life I never thought I'd have


And within me looming

Was a love unscathed by the past

A brand new day means everything

We've built was built to last



And I can feel it all coming

Something I've been working towards

The stakes are high but I've been through all of this before

And if you want to see something that you could never prepare for

Just open up your eyes its all right here and more



It's all right here and more

Just open up your eyes its all right here and more



Oh I can make the music I wanna make

without the pressure to conform

To some industry mans standard,

No I won't ever be that whore



And you can keep on inquiring,

about the days still yet to come

The stars and cards don't hold your future,

look inwards to the only one who does





And I can feel it all coming

Something I've been working towards

The stakes are high but I've been through all of this before

And if you want to see something that you could never prepare for

Just open up your eyes its all right here and more
