Long Way Home

Well I stumbled in the darkness

I'm lost and alone

Though I said I'd go before us

And show the way back home

Is there a light up ahead?

I can't hold on very long

Forgive me pretty baby but I always take the long way home

Money's just something you throw

Off the back of a train

Got a handful of lightening

A hatful of rain

And I know that I said

I'd never do it again

And I love you pretty baby but I always take the long way home

I put food on the table

And a roof overhead

But I'd trade it all tomorrow

For the highway instead

Watch your back, keep your eyes shut tight

Your love's the 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

You are my woman

I know you are my pearl

Let's go out past the party lights

We can finally be alone

Come with me and we can take the long way home

Come with me, together we can take the long way home

Come with me, together we can take the long way home
