LONG RIDE HOME, THE
>From the film "A Time For Killing" (1967)
(Ned Washington / Van Alexander)


Eddy Arnold (Film Soundtrack) - 1967





The long ride home to a home of my own
Will I ever get to take the long ride home
The house, the stream, are they real or a dream
Will they be there when I make the long ride home

When will it all come to pass I see the green fields of grass
I see the bright faces of the dear ones I love
The joy that lies in their smiles, in their eyes 
It can never be described in song or poem
Will I ever get to take the long ride home
