Come A Long Way

Lyrics

We've come a long way since we last shook hands
 Still got a long way to go
 We couldn't see the flowers since we last shook hands
 Couldn't see the flowers on account of the snow
 What did you do with your burden and your cross
 Did you carry it yourself or did you crack
 You and I know that a burden and a cross
 Can only be carried on one man's back
 All my life I wanted to roam
 To go to the ends of the earth
 But the earth really ends where you started to roam
 You and I know what a circle is worth
 Let's drink a cup to what went down
 There's not much left to reveal
 I think I changed my mind after what went down
 As to who in the end got the better deal
 Give me your hand for the parting touch
 Fare thee well and thanks a lot
 I know that we promised we would keep in touch
 But you and I know that we both forgot
 We've come a long way since we last shook hands
 Still got a long way to go
 Couldn't see the flowers when we last shook hands
 Couldn't see the flowers on account of the snow
