Jamie Miller Long Way Home Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 Carol King
Looking back, we didn't have too much, but we had everything, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
Mm

[Verse 2]
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 [Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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
Mm
[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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 (Oh)
Mm
