Come A Long Way

Swing low, could be the last call for two of us

I said swing high, reach out and touch the sky

But don't cry yet, it's not time yet

See this race is wrong

Come see, this race is right

See millions of years pass with no end in sight

Sleep tight, you couldn't count the cost through the night

'cause it's not right, it never was right



Come a long, long

Come a long, long way

Come a long, long

Come a long, long way

Come a long, long

Come a long, long way

Come a long, long

Come a long, long way



Up on may day, and there is a carnival on my street tonight

I hear them dancing, i hear them dancing

But on a clear day

If this thing don't move here

Then this thing just don't have no heartbeat

Get on the street, i say

Sweet hours to live, i got no time to kill

I said hold back those arms raised hold back the bill

Sleep tight, you couldn't count the cost through the night

'cause it's not right, it never was right



Come a long, long

Come a long, long way

Come a long, long

Come a long, long way

Come a long, long

Come a long, long way

Come a long, long

Come a long, long way



Swing low, could be the last call for two of us

I said swing high, reach out and touch the sky

But don't cry yet, it's not time yet

Come a long, long

Come a long, long way

Come a long, long

Come a long, long way

Come a long, long
