[Verse 1]
I'm on my own
So this is how it feels to be alone
It's been a hundred four weeks since I left to go
A hundred million miles away from home

[Pre-Chorus]
My father's old
I think his love is growing cold
It's been a hundred four weeks since I left to go
A hundred million miles away from home

[Chorus]
Far enough to run no further
And near enough to retrace my steps
The foolish son, the lone deserter
Spent it all now I've nothing left

[Verse 2]
Go down this road
The river flows with wine and gold
It's been a hundred four weeks since I left to go
A hundred four weeks since I sold my soul

[Pre-Chorus]
My father's old
And I feel his love is growing cold
It's been a hundrеd four weeks since I left to go
A hundred million milеs away from home
[Chorus]
Far enough to run no further
And near enough to retrace my steps
The foolish son, the lone deserter
Spent it all now I've nothing left
I spent it all
Now I've nothing left

[Chorus]
Far enough to run no further
And near enough to retrace my steps
The foolish son, the lonely daughter
Spent it all now I've nothing left

[Outro]
Down by the road
Father ran and held me close
And then I froze
(Ooh)
And then he spoke
A voice that calmed my weary soul
He said
"It's been a hundred four weeks since you left to go away
But now you're home"
