Luke Daniel - Long Way Back

It's fifty minutes to the city where you sleep
And I can only hope to dream of
That time they wrecked your car you were crying on the phone
But I was more concerned about the pizza
There's times I wonder if it's really worth the fight
Other times I know better not to wonder
But then she calls me up it brings me back to life
But I just end up feeling like a monster
And when I end up driving down that road
I always love to see you but I hate to have to go back home
It's been a long way back from the mountain
Where the green trees have long since fallen down
And the last time I saw you
I left there feeling bad that you were gone
And it's been so long
I thought I needed time to recollect myself
And give her something more than pieces
You have to love yourself to love somebody else
Though I found love I knew I had to leave it
I'd bring her slushies for a dollar ninety nine
Then we would stay up all night talking
And when I'd wake up I would leave my phone behind
And hope she'd leave me pictures in the morning
Now when it gets to the point where we say goodbye
I'm always scared that there won't be a next time
It's been a long way back from the mountain
Where the green trees have long since fallen down
And the last time I saw you
I left there feeling bad that you were gone
And it's been so long
Now when my wheels hit the pavement
And I pass our favorite spots
I might get saddened by nostalgia
But I'm thankful for the years we got
And It's been a long way back from the mountain
Where the green trees have long since fallen down
And the last time I saw you
I left there feeling bad that you were gone
And it's been so long
