Tom Waits - Long Way Home Lyrics
Well I stumbled in the darknessI'm lost and aloneThough I said I'd go before usAnd show the way back homeThere a light up aheadI can't hold onto her armForgive me pretty baby but I always take the long way homeMoney's just something you throwOff the back of a trainGot a head full of lightningA hat full of rainAnd I know that I saidI'd never do it againAnd I love you pretty baby but I always take the long way homeI put food on the tableAnd roof overheadBut I'd trade it all tomorrowFor the highway insteadWatch your back if I should tell youLove's the only thing I've ever knownOne thing for sure pretty baby I always take the long way homeYou know I love you babyMore than the whole wide worldYou are my womanI know you are my pearlLet's go out past the party lightsWhere we can finally be aloneCome with me and we can take the long way homeCome with me, together we can take the long way homeCome with me, together we can take the long way home
