Sitting in a cafe at the corner of Broad and Grand Stirring up old memories and the coffee in my hand The waitress stopped and asked me Honey do you know what you want I had to stop myself from telling her the truth What I really need is another chance with you But this temper train I'm on just ran away too fast It's a long, long, way back to you baby It's a long, long, way back
The neon clock is humming showing sign of wear I've lost all sense of time since I've been sitting here The waitress asked again Is there something else you need I need to take the hands off that clock above my head Reset the time and take back everything I said If I could turn around, then I would erase my tracks But it's a long, long way back, to you baby It's a long, long way back
It is a lonely road a fool travels down I guess I oughta know 'cause that's where I'm headed now And it's a long, it's a long, way back
Sitting at the cafe just Ruby Lee and me I get feeling she's waiting on me to leave She stopped askin' hours ago if I know what I want
Yeah but it's a long, long way back, to you baby It's a long, long way back I miss you darlin' It's a long, long way back
