Dad drove a taxi and mum was cleaning houses We could barely pay the bills, but we never worried 'bout it And they'd tell me stories as they danced to Carole King Looking back we didn't have too much but we had everything Oh I want a love like they have But it doesn't seem real Someone who takes my good and bad Someone who makes me feel like I wanna take the long way home And drive all night Like we got no, no place to go Your hand in mine With the windows down as the sun breaks through Feel it in my bones, it was always you Darling I wanna take the long way home Came to you broken, I know I needed fixing Sometimes you find a piece you didn't even know was missing Oh you listen and you care and sometimes that's all it takes Oh you make me wanna run these lights and cut these brakes, oh You give me love just like that No, it doesn't seem real, no You always take my good and bad You always make me feel Like I wanna take the long way home And drive all night Like we got no, no place to go Your hand in mine With the windows down as the sun breaks through Feel it in my bones, it was always you Darling I wanna take the long way home Slow down, what's the rush now? Take the long way, make it last forever Slow down, what's the rush now? Take the long way, make it last forever I wanna take the long way home And drive all night Like we got no, no place to go Your hand in mine With the windows down as the sun breaks through Feel it in my bones, it was always you Darling I wanna take the long way home
