verse 1: Billy is bartering bottletops Suzie is selling her soul Tied up and twisted and all of my mystics can't steal the grace that I hold Pre-Chorus 1: Such a long way down Such a long yeah-ah verse 2: I wanna go to Miami And leave behind my world And ignore all the prices of these sacrifices and void all the debts I've incurred Pre-Chorus 2: Cuz it's such a long way down It's such a long way down to the ground Where can I go tonight What can I do to show her the least bit of love Why do I need to change verse 3: Well baby sing me a story And sooth my mind Don't talk of war, the weary, the poor, but speak of this love one more time Cuz I'm lavished by loved ones And I listen to friends My mercy's been spent on the bi-weekly rent of the company I'm comfortable in Pre-Chorus 3: Cuz it's such a long way down It's such a long way down It's such a long way down It's such a long And where can I go tonight What can I do to show her the least bit of love Why do I need a change this time Isn't there someone who loves more than I Interlude: Bridge: And I try-------- out on the boulevard And tonight-------- I am not very far But I'll talk to you like you're not here And I'll say the words that you want to hear Cuz it's such a long way down Yeah, it's such a long way down And it's such a long way down And it's such a long way down It's such a long way down It's such a long yeah-ah Yeah-e-ah-e-ah Yeah-e-ah-e-ah Yeah-e-ah-e-ah To the ground
