Tom Waits "Long way home" lyrics

Long way home

Well I stumbled in the darknessI'm lost and aloneThough I said I'd go before usAnd show the way back homeIs there a light up ahead?I can't hold on very longForgive me pretty baby,But I'll always take the long way home.

Money's just something you throwOff the back of a trainGotta head full of lightningA hat full of rainAnd I know that I saidI'd never do it againI love you pretty babyBut I'll always take the long way home

I'll put food on the tableAnd a roof overheadBut I'd trade it all tomorrowFor the highway insteadWatch your backIf I should tell youYour love's the only thing I've ever knownOne thing for sure pretty babyI'll always take the long way home

Mmmmmm......

You know I love you babyMore than the whole wide worldYou are my womanNo you are my pearlLet's go out past the party lightsWhere we can finally be aloneCome with meAnd we can take the long way homeMmmmCome with meTogether we can the long way homeMmmmCome with meTogether we can the long way home
