After a season of foolish desire
In a make believe world of my own
Dreams that come true, simply burn in the fire
That soon will be burning low

Somewhere beneath every strong man's facade
He clings to the hope that there's more
In the long run, there's a promise never broken
In the long run, there's a heart that never fails
In the long run, there's a hand that's always open
In the long run, there's a way back home

Blessed like a hero, but cursed with the pride
Dying to make myself known
Souls that are sold for a passion that lies are
Silently drifting alone

Somewhere beneath every strong man's facade
He clings to the hope that there's more
In the long run, there's a promise never broken
In the long run, there's a heart that never fails
In the long run, there's a hand that's always open
In the long run, there's a way back home
In the long run, there's a way back home
In the long run, there's a way back home
