[00:26.708]So you think you're a Romeo
[00:29.716]You're playing a part in a picture-show
[00:32.342]Well, take the long way home
[00:35.487]Take the long way home
[00:38.715]'Cause you're the joke of the neighbourhood
[00:42.686]Why should you care if you're feeling good?
[00:45.179]Well, take the long way home
[00:48.259]Take the long way home
[00:52.111]There are times that you feel you're part of the scenery
[00:57.285]All the greenery
[01:00.481]Is comin' down, boy
[01:05.149]And then your wife seems to think you're part of the furniture
[01:09.479]Oh, it's peculiar
[01:13.344]She used to be so nice
[01:20.648]When lonely days turn to lonely nights
[01:23.771]You take a trip to the city lights
[01:26.289]And take the long way home
[01:29.289]Take the long way home
[01:33.171]You never see what you wanna see
[01:36.244]Forever playing to the gallery
[01:38.713]You take the long way home
[01:41.764]Take the long way home
[01:45.631]And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable
[01:50.535]Oh, unforgettable
[01:53.800]How they adore you
[01:58.440]But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity
[02:02.518]Oh, calamity
[02:06.063]Or is there no way out?
[02:12.505]Oh yeah!
[02:38.441]Does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe?
[02:43.041]Oh, it has to be
[02:46.466]For you to grow, boy
[02:50.973]When you look through the years and see what you could have been
[02:55.278]Oh, what you might have been
[02:58.704]If you would have more time
[03:06.181]So when the day comes to settle down
[03:09.246]Who's to blame if you're not around?
[03:11.711]You took the long way home
[03:14.539]You took the long way home
[03:17.845]You took the long way home
[03:20.137]Do it again
[03:21.037]You took the long way home
[03:23.791]You took the long way home
[03:25.501]Oh, yah!
[03:27.046]You took the long way home
[03:29.961]You took the long way home
[03:32.360]Ooh, yeah
[03:33.234]You took the long way home
[03:36.667]Aah, aah, aah, aah
[03:42.731]Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[03:48.758]Aah, aah, aah, aah
[03:55.490]Long way home
[03:58.354]Long way home
[04:01.474]Long way home
