So you think your a romeo Taking part in a picture show Take the long way home Take the long way home If your the joke of the neighborhood Why should you care if your feeling good Take the long way home Take the long way home There are times that you feel your part of the scenery O, the greenery, coming down boy And your wife seems to think your part of the furniture O, its peculiar, she used to be so nice When lonely days turn to lonely nights You take a trip to the city lights And take the long way home Take the long way home You never see what you want to see Forever playing to the gallery You take the long way home Take the long way home And when youre up on the stage, its so unbelievable Unforgettable, how they adore you But ten your wife seems to think youre losing your sanity Oh, calamity, is there no way out? Well does it feel that you lifes become a catastrophe? Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy So, when the day comes to settle down Whos to blame if youre not around? You took the long way home You took the long way home Long way home, long way home Long way home, long way home, long way home Long way home Ah Uuuhhh Ah Long way home, long way home, long way home Long way home
