Take The Long Way Home

LETRA

Take The Long Way Home

So you think you're a Romeo
Playing a part in a picture show

Take the long way home
Take the long way home

Because you're the joke of the neighbourhood
Why should you care if you're feeling good

But there are times that you feel
You're part of the scenery
All the greenery is coming down boy
And then your wife seems to think
You're part of the furniture
Oh it's peculiar, she used to be so nice
When lonely days turn to lonely nights
You take a trip to the city lights

You never see what you want to see
Forever playing to the gallery

And when you're up on stage
It's so unbelievable
Unforgettable - how they adore you
But then your wife seems to think
You're losing your sanity
Oh, calamity, is there no way out
Well does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe
Oh it has to be for you to grow boy
And when you look through the years
And see what you could have been
Oh what you might have been
If you'd had more time
So when the day comes to settle down
Well who's to blame if you're not around

You took the long way home
Took the long way home[repeat until fade]
