They closed the pass over the mountains
It don't open until May
So I take the long way round to see you
I take the long way home
The radio's singing Hallelujah
But there's no angel here for me
Just snowflakes dancing in my headlights
And a long way home
And honey I will find a way
To get home till Christmas day
I'll fight the snow if it's the last thing that I do
But it's a long way home
A long way home
And you know I tried to call you
Can't get a signal through these pines
And anyway I might as well keep trucking
It's a long way home
And I'm just a little tired
But I'll keep pushing anyway
Cause I know once I get around these mountains
It's not a long way home
And honey I will find a way
To get home till Christmas day
I'll fight the snow if it's the last thing that I do
But it's a long way home
A long way home
And it feels like I am flying
Tires slipping on the ice
And those lights came out of nowhere
I tried to shield my eyes
I tried
Honey I'm so very sorry
I really tried my best
But I won't make it home in time for Christmas
It's a long way home
