The Long Cut - Uncle Tupelo

I’ve been searching

And you’ve been gone

Been looking for the shortest path

To the one that you’re on

And I’ve already seen

All I want to see

Come on, let’s take the long cut

I think that’s what we need

When we were younger

We were strong

We felt a lot better

The things that we’d done

Now if it’s to be

And if you still believe

Come on, let’s take the long cut

I think that’s what we need

If you want to take the long cut

We’ll get there eventually

I’ve been searching

And you’ve been gone

Been looking for the shortest path

To the one you’re on

Now if it’s to be

And if you still believe

Come on let’s take the long cut

I think that’s what we need

We’ve been in a deep rut

And it’s been killing me

If you want to take the long cut

We’ll get there eventually
