Long Way Home

(hey!) Plastic cups clinking on the loading dock

Past curfew, we don't look at the clock

Lost tourist asking where the highway goes at two AM

We take the long way home,

we start again

The headlights sweep across the empty street

We feel

the engine

heat

Drive it out into the dark tonight!

(yeah) Find the road where the shadows fade to light!

Underneath the wide open dome

We take the long way home!

Warm air rushing through the open pane

Tracing patterns of the static rain (ahhhh)

We take the long way home (the long way home)
