Given time, anything can work out, oh yeah
Given signs, anything can be found, oh yeah
Oh yeah, in a nutshell to the bone
Oh yeah, it's a long, long way back home

In the dark, everything is hard to see, oh yeah
In the light, everything's a mystery, yeah
Oh yeah, there's a lot in being born
Oh yeah, it's a long, long way back home

Somebody's gotta help you through
Somebody's gonna count on you
Somebody
Somebody

At the heart of everything you say or do, oh yeah
Lies a need for something that is true, yeah
Oh yeah, it's a heartache on your own
Oh yeah, it's a long, long way back home
Long, long way

[guitar solo]

Somebody's gotta help you through
Somebody's gonna count on you
Somebody
Somebody

In the end, what you get is what you see, oh yeah
What you did and how it works, a mystery, yeah
Oh yeah, there's a lot in being gone
Oh yeah, it's a long, long way back home
Long, long way
Long, long way
Long, long way back home
Long, long way
Long, long way back home
Long, long way
Long, long way back home
Long, long way
