The Long Way Home Songtext
von Norah Jones

Well I stumbled in the darkness
I′m lost and alone
Though I said I'd go before us
And show the way back home
Is there a light up ahead
I can′t hold on very long
Forgive me pretty baby but I always take the long way home

Money's just something you throw
Off the back of a train
Got a handful of lightening
And head full of rain
And I know that I said
I'd never do it again
Oh and I love you sweet baby but I always take the long way home


I put food on the table and roof overhead
But I′d trade it all tomorrow
For the highway instead
Watch your back if I should tell
Love′s the only thing I've ever known
One thing for sure sweet baby, I always take the long way home

Oh, I love you baby
More than the whole wide world
I′m your woman
I know you are my pearl
So let's go out past the party lights
We can finally be alone

Come with me, we can take the long way home (Mm-mm-mm)
Come with me, together we can take the long way home (Mm-mm-mm)
Come with me, together we can take the long way home
