I met a man one day as he travelled on his way
He was travelling to the place where he was born
Hoping there to find truth and peace of mind
Travelling to the place where he was born
Travelling in the early morning dawn.
Chorus:
I’ve been too long away from you now
Been too long away from you now
More and more I find
You’re more and more on my mind
I’ve been too long away from you now.
I think of all the past mistakes I think of all the time it takes
I think of all the roads I’ve travelled without you
Sometimes here and there on the pillow I saw your hair
But when the morning light grew stronger I found it wasn’t you
In the morning I was thinking of you.
Chorus:
I met a man one day as he travelled on his way
He was travelling to the place where he was born
When he looked at me my own face I could see
I was travelling in the early morning dawn
Travelling to the place where I was born
Chorus:
I’ve been too long away from you now
Been too long away from you now
More and more I find
You’re more and more on my mind
I’ve been too long away from you now.
