when you re cold i ll keep you warm when in doubt i ll make you strong give you shelter through the raging winter storm help you right what is wrong you know i won t falter i won t stumble i won t fall cause you know my heart is constant steady as that northern star it s a long way home and it s a long way home lord knows i don t want to control you in fact i don t want anything at all you know i don t want to own you i don t want to use you and if you need me all you got to do is call and it s a long way home and it s a long way home and it s a long time before the dawn and it s a long way home
