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 |
