Well stumbled in the darkness I'm lost and alone Though I said I'd go before us And show the way back Is there a light up ahead I can't hold onto very long Forgive me pretty baby but I take the long way home
Money's just something you throw Off the back of a train Got a handful of lightening A hat full of rain I know that I said I'd never do it again And I love you pretty but I always take the long way home
I put food on the table And roof overhead But I'd trade all tomorrow For The highway instead Watch your back if I should tell you Loves only thing I've ever known One thing for sure pretty baby I always take the long way home
You know I love you baby More than the whole wide world I'm your You know you are my pearl Let's go out past the party lights We can finally be alone Come with me we can take the long way home Come with me, together we can take long way home Come with me, together we can take the long way home
