Take The Long Way Home

I took a long hard look

At the words in that book

I had to cast my last stone

And take the long way home

I couldn't look you in the eye

And tell another lie

Have to do this on my own

I'll take the long way home,

the long way home

I don't know how you feel

Or if I ever will, yeah

Do you wait by the phone

While I take the long way home,

the long way home

Still here with folded hands

Hoping you understand

My mistakes are my own

But I'll take the long way home,

the long way home
