The Long Way Lyrics by Junior Byles

When Will Better Come

0

[Chorus]
We've came the long way
And I thought you knew
It was the long way
My darling, I thought you knew
We came the long way
[Verse 1]
So, don't break my heart, baby, don't try
We've been through the desert
Where no water flow
We've walked streets and highways
Where kung fu is afraid to go
It was the long way
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
So, don't try; don't try
And I go tell you why, baby
It's 'cause I adore you so much, you know
So, don't try
It's because I, I still need your warm and tender touch
I just can't make it without you, darling
So don't try
[Chorus]
Hey, we've been on the mountain
And I thought you knew
We've been through the vallеy
Where the green hеrbs grow
But, darling, it was the long way
[Outro]
So don't break my heart, yeah darling
Ah don't try, ah don't try-try
Ah cha-cha, cha, cha, ah cha, cha
An' I'm gonna take you by the river
Gonna take you down by the riverside
An' I'm gon' make you my little bride
An' I'm gon' always tell you nice things
