Take The Long Way Home.mid

So you think you're a Romeo,
you're playing a part in a picture show.

Well, take the long way home.
Take the long way home.

'Cause you're the joke of the neighborhood,
why should you care if you're feeling good?

Well, take the long way home.
You take the long way home.

But there are times that you feel
you're part of the scenery,
all the greenery is coming down, boy.

And then your wife seems to think
you're part of the furniture,
oh, it's 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.
You take the long way home.

You never see what you wanna see,
forever playing to the gallery.

You take the long way home.
You take the long way home.

And when you're up on the stage,
it's so unbelievable,
oh, unforgettable how they adore you.

But then your wife seems to think
you're losing your sanity,
oh calamity! Oh, is there no way out?

Well, does it feel that your life's become
a catastrophe?
Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy.

Oh, when you look through the years
and see what you could have been,

oh, what you might have been
if you had had more time.

So, when the day comes to settle down,
well, who's to blame if you're not around?

You took the long way home.
You took the long way home.

You took the long way home.
You took the long way home.

You took the long way home.
You took the long way home.

You took the long way home.
You took the long way home.
Ah, ooh, ah.

Long way home.
Long way home.
Long way home.

Long way home.
Long way home.

Long way home.
Long way home.
