Come Along Way – Desi Valentine

Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh

I overheard them talking in the kitchen
Fixing aunty’s hair they didn’t know I was listening
The two conspire in Catford, London
A grassy knoll, a second gunman

When I walked in, they praised my name
But deep inside I felt the same
Ya can’t hold back a storm that’s coming
I caught my breath and started running

Hey, hey
If I could see myself today, ay
This is what I’d say, hey
You’ve come a long, long way
Oh-oh
Hey, hey
If I could see myself today, ay
This is what I’d say, hey
You’ve come a long, long way

Looking back now, old has been forgiven
Scars don’t always fade but the future’s still unwritten
Twenty-something years later somehow I’m still living
From the West End London states, to L.A. come out swinging

Hey, hey
If I could see myself today, ay
This is what I’d say, hey
You’ve come a long, long way
Oh-oh
Hey, hey
If I could see myself today, ay
This is what I’d say, hey
You’ve come a long, long way

Hey, hey
Hey, hey
This is what I’d say
Hey, hey
A long way
Oh-oh

Hey, hey
If I could see myself today, ay
This is what I’d say, hey
You’ve come a long, long way
You’ve come a long, long way
