Lyrics
Verse 1
I miss my turn and I don’t get madThe long way home is the best I hadYou in the seat with the radio lowAny extra mile still feels like gold
Chorus
Long way homeThat’s all rightLong way homeHold on tight
Verse 2
Fields roll by and we let them rollTalk in pieces, then we don’t talk at allYour hand finds mine on the worn-out wheelThat’s the whole sermon I need to feel
Chorus
Long way homeThat’s all rightLong way homeHold on tight
Bridge
I used to rush like the clock owned my nameYou taught me how to love the unmarked laneA man can hurry and still arrive poorThe long way home is what I came for
Verse 3
Sun gets low and you start to humI pass the shortcut and I tell no oneWe can take sundown the slowest wayGirl, the long way home is how I pray
Chorus
Long way homeThat’s all rightLong way homeHold on tight
Bridge
When my last mile comes I hope it’s thisQuiet country and your little kissKeep riding with me through the fadeThe long way home is the one I made
