This song derives it’s title from the Kurt Vonnegut short story “Long Walk to Forever”.

Long Walk to Never Lyrics
It is the dream that I awake from
That truly writes this song
There's no need for an escape
You've never been here all along
You were in the Caribbean
I'm in New York now thinkin'
You say you want me
But you never came to get me
Oh you never got me
And I hope you don't haunt these
Dreams ever again
Now if only I was Catharine
And you my love were Newt
We’d be sittin' in the orchard
With an apple and a flute
And a ring dangling
But I'm in London now singin'
You claim to want me
But you never came to get me
Oh you never got me
And I hope you don't haunt these
Dreams ever again
Those time-stand-stills in Soho and Brooklyn were lost chances
We missed out I'm lookin' for somethin' else
Somewhere else my friend
You say you want me
But you never came to get me
Oh you never got me
And I hope you don't haunt these
Dreams ever again
And a long walk to never
Surely takes forever and ever
