Somewhere in the night
Somewhere in the wilderness
There beats a heart alone
One shattered life huddled cryin'
Maybe dyin' in the cold
Once he was a young boy
Playin' young boy's games
He only heard his own voice
Never thought twice, just walked away
Take it from me, it's a hard way home
You'll be alone when the night time falls
Better believe before the cold wind blows
No matter how far you roam
It's a hard way home
Rebel with a fight
Lookin' for a victim
To strike a fatal blow
Closer to the light, there's no spark of tenderness
In his heart of stone
Reachin' for the spotlight
Beggin' for kicks
Walkin' on the red line
Mama says the money and blood don't mix
Take it from me, it's a hard way home
You'll be alone when the night time falls
Better believe before the cold wind blows
No matter how far you roam
It's a hard way
Ooh, step into the future
Before you cross that line
Ooh, lovers and losers never get back
What they left behind
Take it from me, it's a hard way home
You'll be alone when the night time falls
Better believe before the cold wind blows
No matter how far you roam
(Take it from me)
Take it from me, it's a hard way home
You'll be alone when the night time falls
Better believe before the cold wind blows
No matter how far you roam
Take it from me
It's a hard way home, oh, yeah
It's a hard way home, yeah
It's a hard way home
Allright, come back tonight
It's a hard way home, yeah
It's a hard way home, yeah
It's a hard way home, yeah
