I'm driving in my car
I'm singing as the song plays
I'm lost out in the dark
I had to take the long way home

Our backs against the wall
My heart is in the driveway
Considering it all
I had to take the long way home

I never wanted anyone like this
I never knew that you could even want it
So I keep a hidden promise on my lips
And shiver at the incidental contact

You’re probably in your car
You’re laughing as the song plays
The miles we’re apart
We never found the right way home

I never wanted anyone like this
I never knew that you could even want it
So I keep a hidden promise on my lips
And shiver at the incidental contact
