The Long Way

Don't think I've ever seen your kind of pretty
 Wanderin' around this midnight mad house city
 You got a look that says you 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 blushin' 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
