Last Way Home

Got a borrowed lighter in my pocket from the store

(from the store)

You took the long way,

then we drove it some more

(some more)

Now we're sitting under hard light,

engine humming low

Wet pavement reflecting the late-summer glow

Do we go back?

(We don't go back) Is it too late?

(It's not too late) Backseat rain falls,

we let it mist the glass

Oh, we drive the long way home!

(Drive the long way home) Underneath the streetlights,

we are not alone

(Not alone)

Yeah, we drive the long way home!

(Drive the long way home)

Corner store shadows fading out of view

(out of view)

Backseat romance, everything is new

(so new)

Condensation dripping down the cold window pane

Lost in the rhythm of the late summer rain

We took the long way...

(The long way home) Just a borrowed light...

(In the rain)
