Used to take the roads without a twist or bend
Driving with my eyes closed, I could see the end
I was going somewhere
Thought I'd find it when I got there
Not supposed to cry when all the skies are blue
But I was disappointed when I saw the view
So I threw my map away and that's the way
I stumbled in to you
I don't mind, I don't mind a detour
I don't mind the wrong way home
I'm never lost
Long as your heart isn't in the dark
And as long as I still get to be yours
I don't mind a detour
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared
You seem so okay with being unprepared
We'll take our time, enjoy the ride
What's around the corner, I don't even care
I don't mind, I don't mind a detour
I don't mind the wrong way home
I'm never lost
Long as your heart isn't in the dark
And as long as I still get to be yours
I don't mind a detour
Might take the long way
It ain't the wrong way
Might take the long way
It ain't the wrong way home
It ain't the wrong way home
Might take the long way
It ain't the wrong way
Might take the long way
It ain't the wrong way home
It ain't the wrong way home
I don't mind, I don't mind a detour
I don't mind the wrong way home
I'm never lost
Long as your heart isn't in the dark
And as long as I still get to be yours
I don't mind a detour
