LONG WAY HOME

[Intro]
Let's take the long way
This dedicated to my hometown

[Chorus]
Let's take the long way home
I'm layin' underneath the palm trees
Where no one can find me
Let's take the long way home
I'm smokin' something by the fire, please
Come and sit beside me
Let's take the long way home
'Cause I don't wanna go
We dream of growin' up but now we only growin' old
So stay up on the phone
We push it to the morn'
And when we hit the road (Yeah)
Let's take the long way home

[Verse 1]
Uh, aye
I swear I didn't know
How quick the minutes go
I had a sinnin' soul
But that's what friends were fo'
Never did it alone
Didn't want to let it go
So please don't let it go (Oh)
The ceiling's spinning
All these nights were never timid
Some thought I quit this shit right now, thank God I never listened
'Cause I broke the limits of this slow town
Where nothing ever goes down
Neighbors said it's so loud
Like every time we go out (Yeah, yeah)
Uh

[Pre-Chorus]
We hoped we'd never change
Life came and had its way
We turned a different page
That love was here to stay
Somehow we veered away
One night left in this place
So it's time that I say

[Chorus]
Let's take the long way home
I'm layin' underneath the palm trees
Where no one can find me
Let's take the long way home
I'm smokin' something by the fire, please
Come and sit beside me
Let's take the long way home
'Cause I don't wanna go
We dream of growin' up but now we only growin' old
So stay up on the phone
We push it to the morn'
And when we hit the road
Let's take the long way home

Uh
That road off Cottage Street is still a big part of me
Buttery Road, don't drive too fast, that curve startled me
But I could feel this heart of me
Wants something more than I've already seen
Or to go down, is that old town where I started dreamin'
That Zoombox
I'm gonna need two shots
That pick me up when my mood drops
Rich girls walkin' in tube tops
Jeep Wrangler with the roof off
If you got a problem, go [?]
You too soft
With the tunes off
Go blast that ridin' down new blocks
In a new spot
'Cause (Long way)

[Pre-Chorus]
We hoped we'd never change
Life came and had its way
We turned a different page
That love was here to stay
Somehow we veered away
One night left in this place
So it's time that I say

[Chorus]
Let's take the long way home
I'm layin' underneath the palm trees
Where no one can find me
Let's take the long way home
I'm smokin' something by the fire, please
Come and sit beside me
Let's take the long way home
'Cause I don't wanna go
We dream of growin' up but now we only growin' old
So stay up on the phone
We push it to the morn'
And when we hit the road
Let's take the long way home

Oh whoa oh
Yeah
Let's take the long way
Long way
Long way
Yeah-eah
Let's take the long way
Long way
Long way
Yeah-eah
