Home isn't open 
It's like, when you get here 
The tracks by the creek bed 
The minnow's the body 
Crawdads with their heads down low 
Back in the tall grass 
Stinging my cattails oh! 
Looking for brother 
It feels like winter 
But it's the heart of the summer 
We can't go swimming 
As long as we slumber 
- 
Cuz we're a long way from home 
A long way from home 
How did we get here? 
--- 
One step takes me home 
Two steps back on my own 
Three skips to each stone 
Four steps back and I'm gone 
------ 
And I wanted you to know 
I was thinking about you 
And you look like a rose 
Especially, when I'm a long way from home 
--- 
A long way from home 
- 
How did we get here? 
Back to the body 
Words jump like salmon 

One step takes me home 
Two steps back on my own 
Three skips to each stone 
Four steps back and I'm gone 

(Chorus) 

In that backwater 
Running through the woods 
In that red water 
In the mirror 
Thinking of you 

Spend all day just thinking of you 
In the mirror thinking of you 
Spend my days just thinking of you 

(Chorus) 

Long way from home 
(Long way from home) 
Long way from home 
(Long way from home) 
Long way from home...
