| [00:57.740] |
So you think you're a Romeo |
| [01:00.690] |
playing a part in a picture-show |
| [01:03.340] |
Take the long way home |
| [01:06.440] |
Take the long way home |
| [01:09.380] |
Cos you're the joke of the neighborhood |
| [01:13.370] |
Why should you care if you're feeling good |
| [01:16.070] |
Take the long way home |
| [01:17.770] |
Take the long way home |
| [01:23.170] |
But there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery |
| [01:26.900] |
all the greenery is comin' down, boy |
| [01:34.590] |
And then your wife seems to think you're part of the |
| [01:38.970] |
furniture oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice. |
| [01:49.120] |
When lonely days turn to lonely nights |
| [01:53.450] |
you take a trip to the city lights |
| [01:56.550] |
And take the long way home |
| [01:58.260] |
Take the long way home |
| [02:03.330] |
You never see what you want to see |
| [02:06.030] |
Forever playing to the gallery |
| [02:09.220] |
You take the long way home |
| [02:11.870] |
Take the long way home |
| [02:15.950] |
And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable, |
| [02:21.600] |
unforgettable, how they adore you, |
| [02:26.990] |
But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity, |
| [02:32.240] |
oh, calamity, is there no way out? |
| [03:08.760] |
Does it feel that you life's become a catastrophe? |
| [03:12.690] |
Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy. |
| [03:19.590] |
When you look through the years and see what you could |
| [03:23.670] |
have been oh, what might have been, |
| [03:28.080] |
if you'd had more time. |
| [03:33.880] |
So, when the day comes to settle down, |
| [03:38.360] |
Who's to blame if you're not around? |
| [03:41.560] |
You took the long way home |
| [03:44.220] |
You took the long way home....... |
