Long Way Down 가사

One time I shook hands with a pirate He gave me a map to all his gold After a lifetime I finally found it By then I was too old to bring it home It was a long way down On a snowy night in late December I set out to find some mistletoe She had promised me all kinds of kisses None of them were worth the bones I broke It was a long way down Long way to fall to have nobody catch ya Long way to call to have nobody answer Long walk home if you don't know the mountain roads One night while playing in a graveyard Somebody's hand reached up and grabbed my leg It was my dearly departed grandpa He said, "I bet you thought that I was dead I was just a long way down" And on the night before the day that I got married The old man said "Hey listen to me son Make sure you wanna hold that girl forever 'Cause once you say I do you gotta do it 'til it's done It's a long way down" Long way to fall to have nobody catch ya Long way to call to have nobody answer Long walk home if you don't know the mountain roads It's a long fall down to Earth from Heaven A long walk back to there from Hell And sometimes the difference between them is hard to tell One time I met a tree out in a forest I said "Tree I wanna be as big as you" He said "Boy I wish you never had've found me 'Cause that means that lumberjack can find me too And it's a long way down"
