Cody Canada - Long Way To Nowhere lyrics

At seventeen all I wanted to be Was gone, long gone The only way I would have stayed Was a graveyard stone I had a plan that I could mention But the road is paved with good intentions [Chorus] Forgiveness if you please Let it rain down on me 'Cause I've come a long way to nowhere Now when I'm asked did I learn in the past I say more or less And do I know which direction to go Well I must confess If I thought I knew the answer I am sure I'd have taken my chances [Chorus] The irony is that I'm dying to be Gone, long gone And you know if I could I'd go back Home sweet home Sifting through the mixed emotions I couldn't change if I took the notion [Chorus] Seventeen, all I wanted to be Was gone, long gone
