Long Way Home - New Empire

How do you say to slow down

How can you stop

And yell it out

When the carousel

Is moving so fast

How can you stop a moving train

Pause the stars to watch again

'Cause you missed them tonight

I'll take your time

If you take these rhymes

And hold them

In your heart forever

'Cause I only want

What you want

And I only have

What's yours to give

And if I must take

The long way home

I need you to walk with me

With me

Given each day is a battlefield

Here I stand with

My sword and shield

Waiting for your

Love to come home

And I will fight

For your every word

From years of fighting

For me first

For me first

I'll take your time

If you take these rhymes

And hold them in your

Heart forever forever

I'll take your time

If you take these rhymes

And hold them

In your heart forever

'Cause I only want

What you want

And I only have

What's yours to give

If I must take

The long way home

I need you to walk with me

I've travelled far

Is it far enough

For you and I to know

The more I want

The less you take away

If you've ever lost

Then you've never loved

So I'll keep on walking

Keep walking until the end

I only want what you want

And I only have

What's yours to give

If I must take

The long way home

I need you to walk with me

And if I must

Take the long way home

I need you to walk with me

I'll take your time

If you take these rhymes

And hold them

In your heart forever
