The Shortest Path

I begin the night

too many hours ahead

A different city light

I dream awake instead

Seen the rising sun

There and back again

I’m all around the world

but I’m wishing I was with you

You’re The Shortest Path

to my destination

You’re the one I think of

when the day is through;

I’ll find my way to you tonight

‘cause you can make the wrong turns right

What no one else has done

makes you the only one

30,000 feet

breakin clouds above

I’m heading for a home

I could fill with love

I am on repeat

staring straight ahead

When I got no window seat

I just think of you instead, cause I know

Chorus

And I get lost in dreams of you

I play this scene out with the perfect line

You lose every doubt

And as we touch down, I wake and it’s through

You’re my solid ground

Time to face the truth

I’ve come a long long way,

but I walk alone

Hear me when I say

Your open arms’ll bring me home

‘cause You’re The Shortest Path

to my destination

You’re the one I think of

when the day is through;

and You’re The Shortest Path

in this revelation

You’re the one who’s changing

everything I knew

I’ll find my way to you tonight

cause you can make the wrong turns right

and anytime I leave I’m stayin with you...
