Jewel - Down So Long lyrics

rate me

The sun sets across the ocean<br>I'm a thousand miles from anywhere<br>And my pocketbook and my heart<br>Both just got stolen<br>And the sun acts like<br>She don't even care<br>The wind blows cold<br>When you reach the top<br>Feels like someone's face<br>Is stuck to the bottom of my shoe<br>I got a plastic jesus<br>And a cordless telephone<br>For every corner of my room<br>Got everybody but you<br>Telling me what to do<br><br>But I've been down so long<br>Ooh, it can't be longer still<br>I've been down so long<br>That the end must be drawing near<br><br>I look to everybody but me<br>To answer my prayers<br>Until I saw an angel<br>In a bathroom<br>Who said she saw no one<br>Worth saving anywhere<br>And a blind man on the corner<br>Said, it's simple,<br>Like flipping a coin<br>Don't matter what side it lands on<br>If it's someone else's dime<br><br>But I've been down so long<br>Ooh, it can't be longer still<br>We've been down for so long<br>That the end must be drawing near<br><br>I take a trip<br>I catch a train<br>I catch a plane<br>I got a ticket in my hand<br>And then a fat man takes my money<br>And like cattle we all stand<br><br>But we've been down so long<br>Ooh, it can't be longer still<br>We've been down so long<br>The end must be...<br>I know the end must be...<br>Oh, I know the end must be<br>Drawing near
