Long Way Home

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 head full of lightning
A hat full of rain

And I know that I said
I'd never do it again
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 if I should tell you
Your love's the only thing I've ever known
One thing's 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
You know you are my pearl

Let's go out past the party lights
Where 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
