| Don’t think I’ve ever seen your kind of pretty
|
| Wandering around this midnight mad house city
|
| You got a look that says you’ve got it all together
|
| So if you don’t mind, I’d like to know you better
|
| Take me the long way around your town
|
| Were you the queen with the silver crown?
|
| I want the secrets you keep, the shine underneath
|
| Of the diamond I think I just found
|
| Take me the long way around
|
| I’d love to see just where your daddy met your momma
|
| Your hand-me-down '99 Impala
|
| Show me the field you danced in Clover
|
| The harvest in October
|
| When the leaves fall from the sky just like a Sunday drive
|
| Take me the long way around your town
|
| Were you the queen with the silver crown?
|
| I want the secrets you keep, the shine underneath
|
| Of the diamond I think I just found
|
| Take me the long way around
|
| Didn’t think tonight when I walked in
|
| I’d be falling for somewhere I’ve never been
|
| Take me the long way around your town
|
| Were you the queen with the silver crown?
|
| I want your red blushing stories
|
| Your faults and your glories
|
| That made you who you are right now
|
| Take me the long way around
|
| Take me the long way around |
