Long Way Home

From the white wooden cross on the side of the road on that old oak tree

To the red to the glass and the tall swayin grass,it's easy to see

This two lane knows my pain

Yeah, here I go again

Back and forth, up and down, tryna make it all make sense

Everyday I wind up here, windin through gears

Windin down that same old back road with the windows down

Chasin down some old memory

It's like I make this drive, just to cry

But I guess that's what I need sometimes

When I can't face that you're really gone

So everyday, I take the long way home

Well, this outta my way two mile stretch is all that's left of back in the day

That road sign's still missin

Can't believe they ain't fixed it, but it's better that way

I can still sees us jumpin out

Two fishin poles and a six pack

Crossin lines havin the time of our lives

Not catchin a thing

So everyday I wind up here, windin through gears

Windin down that same old back road with the windows down

Chasin down some old memory

It's like I make this drive just to cry

But I guess that's what I need sometimes

When I can't face that you're really gone

So everyday, I take the long way home

Man, I'm gettin through

But damn, I'm missin you

So at times like this

I wind up here, windin through gears

Windin down this same old back road with the windows down

Chasin down some old memory

It's like I make this drive just to cry

But I guess that's what I need sometimes

When I can't face that you're really gone

Yeah, when I can't face that you're really gone

I take the long way home

Yeah, I take the long way home
