Artist/Band: Tom Waits
Lyrics for Song: Long Way Home
Lyrics for Album: Orphans [Fold-Out Digipak With 24-Page Booklet] [2006]



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

There a light up ahead

I can't hold onto her arm

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 head full of lightning

A hat full of rain

And I know that I said

I'd never do it again

And I love you pretty 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 you

Love's the only thing I've ever known

One thing for sure pretty baby I always take the long way home



You know I love you baby

More than the whole wide world

You are my woman

I know you are my pearl

Let's go out past the party lights

Where we can finally be alone

Come with me and we can take the long way home

Come with me, together we can take the long way home

Come with me, together we can take the long way home
