Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't think I've ever seen your kind of pretty
Wandering 'round this midnight madhouse city
You got a look that says you got it all together
So if you don't mind, I'd like to know you better
[Verse 2]
Take me the long way around your town
Were you the queen with the silver crown?
I want the secrets you keep
The shine underneath of the diamond I think I just found
Take me the long way around
[Verse 3]
I'd love to see just where your daddy met your mama
Your hand-me-down '99 Impala
Show me the field you danced in clover
The harvest in October
When the leaves fall from the sky just like a Sunday drive
[Verse 4]
Take me the long way around your town
Were you the queen with the silver crown?
I want the secrets you keep
The shine underneath of the diamond I think I just found
Take me the long way around
Mmm
[Verse 5]
I didn't think tonight, when I walked in
I'd be falling for somewhere I've never been
Mm
[Verse 6]
Take me the long way around your town
Were you the queen with the silver crown?
I want your red blushing stories
Your faults and your glories
That made you who you are right now
Take me the long way around
Take me the long way around
Mmm
