Johnny Gill - Long Way from Home

Sometimes it burns like, like a fire, yeah
Love has a mind of, a mind of it's own
Don't let it stop your, your desire
Baby, don't end up, end up alone

Stop where you are
Look to your heart
Don't be afraid, don't throw love away
Don't get burned by your heart

'Cause you're a long, long way from home
You need a man of your own, keepin' you warm
'Cause you're a long, long way from home
You need to hurry back home, let me keep you warm, yeah

Sometimes it feels like life's over, yeah
You know when it feels like everything's wrong
Don't let it take you, take you under
Baby, don't end up, end up alone

Stop where you are
Look to your heart
Don't be afraid, don't throw love away
Don't get burned by your heart

Cause you're a long, long way from home
You need a man of your own, keepin' you warm (oh yeah)
'Cause you're a long, long way from home (yeah)
You need to hurry back home (yeah, you better hurry on back home)
Let me keep you warm (let me, let me keep you warm, yeah)

I know that at times it doesn't seem fair
Those are times when you don't even care
Broken heart, shattered dreams
Without love, tell me what does it mean

Stop it, baby, right where you are
Don't you let it go, go too far
Stop it, stop it, right where you are
You're a long way from home

'Cause you're a long, long way from home
You need a man of your own (oh, you need someone hold on to)
Keepin' you warm (you're gonna need someone to keep you warm)
'Cause you're a long, long way from home (and I wanna be right there by your side)
(I don't ever wanna let you go, let you go, let you, let you go, baby)
You need to hurry back home (hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry)
Let me keep you warm (oh, don't too long, baby)

Stop where you are
Look to your heart
Don't be afraid, don't throw love away
Don't get burned by your heart

'Cause you're a long, long way from home
You need a man of your own (oh, you're gonna need someone to hold on to)
Keepin' you warm (someone that's gonna love you, someone that's gonna keep you warm all night long)
'Cause you're a long, long way from home (you see, not a train, not car, not a plane)
(Not a boat's gonna bring me back home, baby)
You need to hurry back home (you gotta hurry back home, you come on)
Let me keep you warm (get some of this, get some of this, get some of this)

'Cause you're a long, long way from home
You need a man of your own, keepin' you warm
'Cause you're a long, long way from home
