Lyrics
Long Way Home
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's not what we expected
not what we had planned
but maybe it is better
than we can understand
like finding a good reason
in a bottle on the shore
everything will have it's season
nobody's keeping score
this is not how I thought that it would be
waiting on some circumstance, to make me feel complete
innocence, we pass it down
like corduroys with the knees worn out
i wanna take the long way home
the long way home
i'm driving in slow motion
on streets of might-have been's
put to rest my reservations
A new day to begin
this is not how I thought that it should go
drag me around and around the things I thought I should know
love is not efficient, but even if it was...
innocence lost and found
like quarter tones that pass the hour
i wanna take the long way home
