[01:06.13]So you think you're a Romeo
[01:10.07]Playing a part in a picture-show
[01:12.12]Take the long way home
[01:15.56]Take the long way home
[01:19.10]
[01:19.10]'Cause you're the joke of the neighborhood
[01:22.12]Why should you care if you're feeling good
[01:25.17]Take the long way home
[01:28.33]Take the long way home
[01:31.91]
[01:31.91]But there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery
[01:37.15]All the greenery is comin' down, boy
[01:44.91]And then your wife seems to think you're part of the furniture
[01:49.56]Oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice
[02:00.18]
[02:00.18]When lonely days turn to lonely nights
[02:03.13]You take a trip to the city lights
[02:05.91]And take the long way home
[02:09.11]Take the long way home
[02:12.92]
[02:12.92]You never see what you want to see
[02:16.06]Forever playing to the gallery
[02:18.14]You take the long way home
[02:21.17]Take the long way home
[02:25.13]
[02:25.13]And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable,
[02:30.12]Oh unforgettable, how they adore you,
[02:37.91]But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity,
[02:42.80]Oh, calamity, is there no way out, oh yeah
[02:57.79]Ooh, take it, take it out
[03:03.16]Take it, take it out
[03:10.32]Oh yeah
[03:17.88]
[03:17.88]Does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe?
[03:23.12]Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy
[03:30.40]When you look through the years and see what you could have been
[03:35.58]Oh, what you might have been,
[03:38.45]If you'd had more time
[03:45.22]
[03:45.22]So, when the day comes to settle down,
[03:49.02]Who's to blame if you're not around?
[03:51.18]You took the long way home
[03:54.19]You took the long way home
[03:57.11]Took the long way home
[04:00.36]You took the long way home
[04:03.18]You took the long way home, so long
[04:07.03]You took the long way home
[04:09.92]You took the long way home, uh yeah
