These Days

[Verse 1] Let's take the long way home tonight And just cruise along the boulevards Let's shine a little, we're the streetlights And dream ourselves away to Mars Let's follow all the stars above Or maybe take the subway home [Chorus] These days are mine And I'm gonna take it slow Like the peaceful waters flow I'll make it up as I go That's all I really know So let's take the long way home [Verse 2] Let's cry a little if we wanna Or laugh out loud the best we can Let's meet the comfort of convenience And search a silence deep within Let's stay a while and take it easy If that's something you can overcome Let's take a minute just to slip away And linger on before it's gone [Chorus] These days are mine And I'm gonna take it slow Like the peaceful waters flow I'll make it up as I go That's all I really know So let's take the long way home [Chorus] These days are mine And I'm gonna take it slow Like the peaceful waters flow I'll make it up as I go That's all I really know So let's take the long way home [Outro] And I'm gonna take it slow Like the peaceful waters flow And that's all I really know So let's take the long way home
