Hi Folks,

I'm looking for the lyrics of the song "Long Road" written by Nick Keir (the guy from McCalmans...) published on his album "All Over this Town".

Can anybody help me?

Thanx and so long

LONG ROAD
Nick Keir

Felt the wind over Carter Bar
It took a long road to get here
Navigating by a shooting star
It took a long road to get here

It took a long road and a heavy load
It took a long road to get here
It took a long road and a heavy load
It took a long road to get here


Spent some time on the Borderland
It took a long road to get here
Bought a house, it was built on sand
It took a long road to get here

And I still ride in cars with strangers
And I still love those pretty lies
And I'm oblivious to the dangers
That lurk in those beautiful sparkling eyes,
those lying eyes

Making love in a stranger's house
It took a long road to get here
Running home quieter than a mouse
It took a long road to get here

And I still fight with the Devil
Though I hardly win a round
And though I like things on the level
I can't keep my feet on the stone cold ground,
the stone cold ground

Late last night I heard the back door slam
It took a long road to get here
Frankly, darling, I don't give a damn
It took a long road to get here

And I still jump without a safety net
And I've made people cry, it's true
I'm always leaving on the next train yet
My heart dreams of home when I dream of you
When I dream of you

Felt the wind over Carter Bar
It took a long road to get here
Navigating by a shooting star
It took a long road to get here

Best wishes,

Bente

Someone told me there'd been a request for the lyrics to this Nick Keir Song:

Long Road

"Felt the wind over Carterbar, It took a long road to get here,
Navigating by a shooting star, It took a long road to get here,

It took a long road and a heavy load,It took a long road to get here,
It took a long road and a heavy load,It took a long road to get here,

Spent some time on the borderland It took a long road to get here,
Bought a house, it was built on sand It took a long road to get here

Chorus

And I still ride in cars with strangers,
And I still love those pretty lies
And I'm oblivious to the dangers,
That lurk in those beautiful sparkling eyes, those lying eyes.

Making love in a stranger's house It took a long road to get here
Running home quieter than a mouse It took a long road to get here

Chorus

And I still fight with the devil
Though I hardly win a round
And though I like things on the level
I can't keep my feet on the stone cold ground, the stone cold ground

Late last night I heard the back door slam, It took a long road to get here
Frankly darling I don't give a damn,It took a long road to get here

Chorus

And I still jump without a safety net
And I've made people cry it's true
I'm always leaving on the next train, yet,
My heart dreams of home when I dream of you, when I dream of you

Felt the wind over Carterbar, It took a long road to get here,
Navigating by a shooting star, It took a long road to get here,

Chorus "
