They sent me away to teach me how to be sensible, Logical, oh responsible, practical. And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, Oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical...
Roger HodgsonYou can laugh at my behavior that will never bother me, say the devil is my savior, but I don't pay no heed.
Roger HodgsonTake the Long Way Home is a song that I wrote that's on two levels - on one level I'm talking about not wanting to go home to the wife, 'take the long way home' because she treats you like part of the furniture. But there's a deeper level to the song, too. I really believe we all want to find our true home, find that place in us where we feel at home, and to me, home is in the heart. When weโre in touch with our heart and we're living our life from our heart, then we do feel like we found our home.
Roger HodgsonFeel all you can, let your heart speak and guide you. Don't be afraid of the love deep inside you.
