 so much of life's this way

[Chorus:]

 Did we leave our way behind us?

     Such a long, long way behind us?

 Who knows when, now who knows where?

 A
 Look for the day.

Take heart, my friend, we love you
though it seems like you're alone
A million lights above you
smile down upon your home
Hurry put your troubles in a suitcase
Come let the new child play
Lonely as a whisper on a star chase
I'm leaving here, I'm gone away
For all the stars in heaven

 I would not live, I could not live, this way

 Did we leave our way behind us?
     Such a long, long time behind us?

 Leave it for some hopeless lane

 Such a long, long way
     Such a long, long way

 Such a long, long way

 A
 I'm looking for, still looking for that day
