Lyrics
Well I stumbled in the darkness
I'm lost and alone
Though I said I'd go before us
To 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
And a hat full of rain
And I know that I said
I'd never do it again
I love you pretty baby
But I'll always take
The long way home

I put food on the table
And a roof over our head
But I'd trade it all tomorrow
For the highway instead
Watch your back
Keep your eyes shut tight
Your love's the only thing I've ever known
But one thing's for sure pretty baby
I'll always take the long way home

(Bridge)

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
