v 1

Lately I've been missing that little look in your eyes
that lets me know that everything will be okay
Tell me what has changed
I find it hard to hold onto the butterflies
that used to be inside
You don't have to say a word
Its written all over your face ohh
So before the night is through
I want some time with you
Here is what we're gonna do ooh yea

chorus

Lets take the long way home
So we can be alone and talk about what's going on
Pull on over to the side
All we have is time
So tell me what's on your mind
Lets take the long way home
I can see that something's wrong
Boy you gotta let me know
While there's no one else around
We can work it out yea
Lets take the wrong way home

v 2

I know its messed up
but I'm hoping that we can get it together
It might be hard to see when we're having doubts
Trying to work it out
I know it seems easier to pull away
You see I want you to know that I will stay right here
Cause we deserve another try
So lets just enjoy the ride

So before the night is through
I want some time with you
Here is what we're gonna do ooh yea

chorus

Lets take the long way home
So we can be alone and talk about what's going on
Pull on over to the side
All we have is time
So tell me what's on your mind
Lets take the long way home
I can see that something's wrong
Boy you gotta let me know
While there's no one else around
We can work it out yea
Lets take the wrong way home

Bridge

Take a left right here on heartbreak ave.
This is where I first met you boy
You said you wanna take a spin
This is how it all began
So we can get back to loving again

chorus x 2

Lets take the long way home
So we can be alone and talk about what's going on
Pull on over to the side
All we have is time
So tell me what's on your mind
Lets take the long way home
I can see that something's wrong
Boy you gotta let me know
While there's no one else around
We can work it out yea
Lets take the wrong way home
