I left home a long, long time ago
In a tin can for the road with a suitcase and some songs
Chasing miles through the nighttime making tracks
With no time for looking back to the place where I belong

How these days grow long
But I´m on my way back home
It´s been hard to be away

How I miss you and I just wanna kiss you
And I´m gonna love you till my dying day
How these days grow long

When you´re sad, you know I wish I could be there
To make your sorrows disappear and set your troubles free
It´s not fair for me to be this far from you
But I promise to stay true wherever I might be

Time keeps burning
The wheels keep on turning sometimes
I feel I´m wasting my day

How I miss you and I just wanna kiss you
And I´m gonna love you till my dying day

How these days grow long
Time keeps burning on
How these days grow long

Now I´m lost in a sea of sunken dreams
While the sound of drunken screams echoes in the night
But I know all of this will come to pass
And I´ll be with you at last, forever by your side

How these days grow long
But I´m on my way back home
It´s been hard to be away

How I miss you and I just wanna kiss you
And I´m gonna love you till my dying day

And time keeps burning
The wheels keep on turning sometimes
I feel I´m wasting my day

How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
And I´m gonna love you till my dying day

How these days grow long
Time keeps burning on
How these days grow long
