| There’s a sadness in the air
|
| On the train to Tennessee
|
| And I know there’s no angel watching over me
|
| All I have to hold
|
| Is this atlas and a note that reads
|
| If ever you are ready to come home again
|
| I’ll be waiting up
|
| But please don’t be too long
|
| You know I never meant to make you lonesome
|
| But I got my own plans
|
| And if you love me, understand
|
| I’ve got to take this road to find out who I really am
|
| So tonight, I’ll take the long way home
|
| And drink until I can’t remember you
|
| Or why I ever started
|
| If I can’t hold you
|
| Gonna fold you like a note and keep you here
|
| With me
|
| Thought about your smile
|
| On the car ride up to Madison
|
| Are you still letting go?
|
| Are you still letting go?
|
| Cause I’ve been trying to move on
|
| But I’m feeling so damn lost
|
| Without your love
|
| Without your love
|
| Tonight, I’ll take the long way home
|
| And drink until I can’t remember you
|
| Or why I ever started
|
| If I can’t hold you
|
| Gonna fold you like a note and keep you here
|
| With me
|
| I want you here
|
| With me
|
| Tonight I’ll take the long way home
|
| Won’t you drink with me until the sun comes up?
|
| Look at what we started
|
| If I can’t hold you
|
| I’m gonna fold you like a note and keep you here
|
| With me |
