| [01:04.94] |
So you think you're a Romeo |
| [01:07.89] |
playing a part in a picture-show |
| [01:10.54] |
Take the long way home |
| [01:13.64] |
Take the long way home |
| [01:16.58] |
Cos you're the joke of the neighborhood |
| [01:20.57] |
Why should you care if you're feeling good |
| [01:23.27] |
Take the long way home |
| [01:24.97] |
Take the long way home |
| [01:30.37] |
But there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery |
| [01:34.10] |
all the greenery is comin' down, boy |
| [01:41.79] |
And then your wife seems to think you're part of the |
| [01:46.17] |
furniture oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice. |
| [01:56.32] |
When lonely days turn to lonely nights |
| [02:00.65] |
you take a trip to the city lights |
| [02:03.75] |
And take the long way home |
| [02:05.46] |
Take the long way home |
| [02:10.53] |
You never see what you want to see |
| [02:13.23] |
Forever playing to the gallery |
| [02:16.42] |
You take the long way home |
| [02:19.07] |
Take the long way home |
| [02:23.15] |
And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable, |
| [02:28.80] |
unforgettable, how they adore you, |
| [02:34.19] |
But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity, |
| [02:39.44] |
oh, calamity, is there no way out? |
| [03:15.96] |
Does it feel that you life's become a catastrophe? |
| [03:19.89] |
Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy. |
| [03:26.79] |
When you look through the years and see what you could |
| [03:30.87] |
have been oh, what might have been, |
| [03:35.28] |
if you'd had more time. |
| [03:41.08] |
So, when the day comes to settle down, |
| [03:45.56] |
Who's to blame if you're not around? |
| [03:48.76] |
You took the long way home |
| [03:51.42] |
You took the long way home....... |
