Lyrics
Well I, have taken the long way home
To see if the fields have grown, to see
If you are still alright
‘Cause I, am running away from you
Away from all you do and I,
I don’t know where to hide
And I, I think that I love you more,
Since you opened up the door
And took a step outside
And I, am walking down the lane
To see if time and pain and I
Will ever meet again
‘Cause I, have taken the long way home
To see if the fields have grown, to see
If you are still alright
And I, I think that I love you more,
Since you opened up the door
And took a step inside
And I, am walking down the lane
To see if time and pain and I
Will ever meet again
‘Cause I, am running away from you
Away from all you do and I,
I don’t know where to hide, hide
And I, I think that I love you more,
Since you opened up the door
And took a step outside (inside)
Story
The original draft recording of this song, played on the piano and sung by Anna herself, was found on the studio's computer, preciously conserved.
This recording was made with the complicity of Stéphane Novak on Thursday, 15th July 2005, at 11:52! Less than 2 years before Anna's stroke...
Today we share with you this real treasure, which has never been played or distributed.
The song has been arranged and produced by Olja Dešić, following a style which Anna adores (Sarah McLachlan, Rumer, Norah Jones...)
