Supertramp - Take the Long Way Home lyrics
[Supertramp - Take the Long Way Home lyrics]
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 neighbourhood
Why should you care if you're feeling good?
Well, take the long way home
Take the long way home
There are times that you feel
You're part of the scenery all the greenery
Is comin' 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
Take the long way home
You never see what you wanna see
Forever playing to the gallery
You take the long way home
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
Or is there no way out? Oh yeah!
Does it feel that your
Life's become a catastrophe?
Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy
When you look through the years and
See what you could have been
Oh, what you might have been
If you would have more time
So when the day comes to settle down
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 do it again
You took the long way home
You took the long way home oh, yah!
You took the long way home
You took the long way home ooh, yeah
You took the long way home
Aah, aah, aah, aah ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Long way home long way home
Long way home long way home
Long way home long way home
Long way home
