lyrics

Meet me behind the backstop, old and rusted by the rain
Just off the county blacktop, I think you know the place
And we'll drive off alone, turn up the radio
Wait for our song and take the long way home

Your Daddy's gunning for me, no one's gonna take his little girl
He's got us running honey, but he can't save you from this world
And he thinks this thing won't last and that we're moving much too fast
We'll prove him wrong and take the long way home
Take the long way home

We'll take one last ride through this town, drive on past the turn-around
And keep on going
Darkened windows and empty streets, no one's there to watch us leave
Or see the tailights glowing

And it don't matter where we go, New York City, or old Mexico
Lets just get gone and take the long way home

Take the long way home
Take the long way home
Take the long way home
