Jeremiah Johnson - Long Way Home Lyrics

If you could take the red from my rose
Take away the dignity and pride
If you could take the wind as it blows
wash away the tear drops from the eyes

BRIDGE CHORUS
If I could have those last three minutes again
There'd been a hell of a lot more said
Let's take the long way home

If you could take the blue from the sky
Peacefulness of a hands caress
If you could take the love from sacrifice
and wash away the pain and loneliness
