Long Way Home

[Verse 1]

Lately, I've been missin'

The little look in your eyes

That lets me know that everything will be okay

Tell me what has changed

I find it hard to hold on

To the butterflies that used to be inside

You don't have to say a word

It's written all over your face

So before...

[Pre-Chorus]

So before the night is through

I want some time with you

Here's what we're gonna do...ooh yeah...

[Chorus]

Let's take the long way home

So we can be alone

And talk about what's goin' on

Pull on over to the side

All we have is time

So tell me what's on your mind

Let's take the long way home

I can see that something's wrong

Boy, you gotta let me know

While there's no one else around

We can work it out, yeah

Let's take the long way home

[Verse 2]

I know it's messed up but I'm hopin'

That we can get it together

It might be hard to see

When we're havin' doubts, tryin' to work it out

And though it seems easier to pull away

You see, I want you to know that I will stay right here

'Cause we deserve another try

So let's just enjoy the ride

[Pre-Chorus]

So before the night is through

I want some time with you

Here's what we're gonna do...

[Chorus]

Let's take the long way home

So we can be alone

And talk about what's goin' on

Pull on over to the side

All we have is time

So tell me what's on your mind

Let's take the long way home

I can see that something's wrong

Boy, you gotta let me know

While there's no one else around

We can work it out, yeah

Let's take the long way home

[Bridge]

Take a left right here on Heartbreak Avenue

(It's where I first met you, boy)

You said you wanna take a spin

That's how it all began

So we can get it back to lovin' again

[Chorus]

Let's take the long way home

So we can be alone

And talk about what's goin' on

Pull on over to the side

All we have is time

So tell me what's on your mind

Let's take the long way home

I can see that something's wrong

Boy, you gotta let me know

While there's no one else around

We can work it out, yeah

Let's take the long way home

Let's take the long way home

So we can be alone

And talk about what's goin' on

Pull on over to the side

All we have is time

So tell me what's on your mind

Let's take the long way home

I can see that something's wrong

Boy, you gotta let me know

While there's no one else around

We can work it out, yeah

Let's take the long way home

[Outro]

Woo, ooh yeah

I'm not gonna leave you alone

I'm not gonna leave you alone

The long way home...
