I passed your porch today with a smile on my face
When I thought about all the flights I take
To North Carolina down to see my baby
In hopes that when I make, make myself look back in retrospect
I'd spend every single dollar spent
If I can just get one more chance to be with you for life
Nothing is too hard, no drive is too far
To get down to Raleigh tonight

It's gonna be a long way home
Cause every time I hear the road calling out my name I'm gone
And I'm gonna take my time watching these days go by
It's just for now that I, I'm leaving

So believe it or not I choose to believe
You're somewhere out there thinking of me
And know that I am right here, thinking of you
Through looking back in retrospect
I loved every single day we spent
I wish I could get just one more chance to be with you for life
Nothing is too hard, no state is too far
To make it to Raleigh tonight

It's gonna be a long way home
Cause every time I hear the road calling out my name I'm gone
And I'm gonna take my time watching these days go by
It's just for now that I, I'm leaving

You had stars in your eyes
Just like southern skies that we spent all our time under
In my mind I'm on one of those flights

Cause nothing is too hard, no state is too far
I'll get to you

It's gonna be a long way home
It's gonna be a long way home

You had stars in your eyes
Just like southern skies that we spent all our time under
In my mind I'm on one of those flights
