Lyrics
A Long Way To Fall
Well I had it all,
A wife and two kids and,
A home with a yard,
A job that paid good,
And the work wasn’t hard,
Who had it better than me,
But evrything’ changed,
I let my guard down,
I got carried away,
With a girl that I met,
Soon things weren’t the same,
Don’t know what got into me,
Cause’ I thought she’d be,
Just a one time distraction,
But I was left hung out to dry.
Yeah that girl worked on me,
With her careless intention,
Til’ I told my wife goodbye,
And in less than a month,
That girl would move on,
Now there’s no going back,
To a family that’s gone,
n' I went from the penthouse to the basement,
And that’s A Long Way To Fall,
I got no one to blame,
The fault is all mine and,
I paid the price,
Got what I deserved next,
Time I’ll think twice,
If there’ll be a next time for me,
And all that I treasured’s now,
All that I lost when,
I pushed my family aside,
So I’m not expecting a ,
Trace of forgiveness cause’,
Everything we had has died,
And I get reminded each,
Day that goes by,
How one moment’s weakness,
Has messed up my life,
n' I went from the penthouse to the basement,
And that’s A Long Way To Fall,
4 bar music solo
Now I’m nothing more than,
A shell of a man,
The best part of me,
I let slip through my hands,
And I went from the penthouse to the basement,
And that’s A Long Way To Fall,
From the penthouse to the basement,
That’s such A Long Way To Fall
