Verse 1
Got a fighting chance
And the landscape looks familiar
But I'm looking for a place I've never seen
And I've made mistakes
And I know I'm only human
And no one gets it right without a wrong
Hey!
Chorus
And I'm on my way, walking in circles
A cloud by day, leading me onward
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home
Taking the long
Fire at night, lighting the shadows
Moving along, little by little
Then I heard You say
Taking the long way home
Verse 2
Oh, I've played my hand
And they say it's all a gamble
But I'd rather lose than know I've never tried
Look how far we've come
Color vision of the future
Laughing out loud while we pray for better days
Chorus
Then I'm on my way, walking in circles
A cloud by day, leading me onward
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home
Taking the long
Fire at night, lighting the shadows
Moving along, little by little
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home
Taking the long way
Bridge
It's two steps forward and one step back
It's a past regret and a second chance
It's yelling at the sky while He says it's worth the wait
I hope it's worth the wait
Refrain
Been a long time coming
Been a long time coming
Chorus
Oh, and I'm on my way, walking in circles
A cloud by day, leading me onward
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home
Taking the long way
Fire at night, lighting the shadows
Moving along, little by little
Thought I heard You say
We're taking the long way home
We're taking the long way home
Outro
It's been a long time coming
