Too Long in Exile Lyrics

Van Morrison

Living in exile too long
Too long in exile Too long not singing my song Too long in exile
Too long like a rolling stone Too long in exile Too long in exile
Baby those people just ain't Just ain't your friends Too long in exile, my friend You can never go home again
Well, that isolated feeling Drive you so close up against the wall Till you feel like you can't go on You've been in the same place for too long
Too long in exile Baby, you can never go back home Too long in exile Anyway you want
Oh, in exile too long Oh, in exile too long
Oh, that isolated feeling Drives you up against, up against the wall 'Cause you've been on the mainland, baby Been on the mainland, comin' on strong
Too long in exile Too long people keep hanging on, alright Too long in exile Too long like a rolling stone
And the wheeling and the dealing All takes up too much time Check your better self, baby You've gotta satisfy, satisfy your mind
Too long in exile Too long you've been grinding at the mill Oh, too long in exile Man, I've really just had my fill
Too long in exile You can never go back home again Too long in exile You'se about to drive me just insane
Too long in exile, been too long in exile Just like James Joyce, baby Too long in exile Just like Samuel Beckett, baby Too long in exile
Just like Oscar Wilde Too long in exile Just like George Best, baby Too long in exile Just like Alex Higgins, baby Too long in exile
