lyrics

If you ain't learning from your mistakes
You know you're just burning, seeing if the fire takes
And if you ain't working honey, working to improve
Then you ain't nothing but a man on the move

What good is that in the long run?
It's never gonna get you home
What good is that in the long run?
It's never gonna get you home

And if you are just moving from one spot to the next
Nothing's ever gonna slow you down but you'll never find happiness
And if you are just running, honey, running in place
No one will ever slow you down but you never gonna win the race

What good is that in the long run?
It's never gonna get you home
What good is that in the long run?
It's never gonna get you home

It's no good in the long run
It's never gonna get you home
I said it's no good in the long run
It's never gonna get you home
You know it's no good in the long run
It's never gonna get you home
(You not knowing where I'm going's not the same as me not knowing where I am)
Said it's no good in the long run
It's never gonna get you home
(You not knowing where I'm going's not the same as me not knowing where I am)

Come on and take me home
