The 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

And head full of rain

And I know that I said

I'd never do it again

Oh and I love you sweet baby but I always take the long way home

I put food on the table and roof overhead

But I'd trade it all tomorrow

For the highway instead

Watch your back if I should tell

Love's the only thing I've ever known

One thing for sure sweet baby, I always take the long way home

♪

Oh, I love you baby

More than the whole wide world

I'm your woman

I know you are my pearl

So let's go out past the party lights

We can finally be alone

Come with me, we can take the long way home (Mm-mm-mm)

Come with me, together we can take the long way home (Mm-mm-mm)

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