[Intro: Brad Barr, Patrick Watson]
Thought I knew the difference between heaven and hell
(Thought that, ooh)
Between the dark, and the light
(Ooh, ooh)
Everyday, it gets a little harder to tell
But both of us can be right
(Ooh, ooh)
[Chorus: Brad Barr, Patrick Watson]
When you’re gone
Both of us can be right
When you're gone
(I'll send a letter)
It's a long way home
[Verse: Brad Barr, Patrick Watson]
Couldn’t stop my head today from floating away
(Couldn’t stop my head…)
Over the houses and cars
Finally, I thought, “It must be better this way”
(Thought it must be…)
He’s up in the moon, and the stars
[Chorus: Brad Barr, Patrick Watson]
When you’re gone
(Child of mine)
Up in the moon, and the stars
(Ah-ah, ah)
When you’re gone
(Such a long...)
Baby, it’s a long way home
(Ah)
[Bridge: Brad Barr, Patrick Watson]
It’s not a warning, babe
It's an order
(Ah-ah, ah)
Everybody keeps getting harder
[Chorus: Brad Barr, Patrick Watson]
When you’re gone
(Child of mine)
Up in the moon, and the stars
[Outro: Brad Barr, Patrick Watson]
When you’re gone
(Such a long...)
Baby, it’s a long way home
Baby, it’s a long way home
