Taking The Long Way Home

We're taking the long way home
 Taking the long way home
 Take me back to the middle of nowhere
 Back to the place only you and I share
 Remember all the memories?
 The fireflies and make-believe
 Kicking back in the old school yard
 Singing songs on our guitars
 This is our reality
 Crazy stupid, you and me
 We know this is the way it's supposed to be
 So we're taking the long way home
 'Cause I don't wanna be wasting my time alone
 I wanna get lost and drive forever with you
 Talking about nothing, yeah, whatever, baby
 So we're taking the long way home tonight
 So we're taking the long way home
 We're taking the long way home
 Taking the long way home
 Now we're stuck in the middle of nowhere
 Yeah, you know we took our time to get there
 We're hiding out in a dream
 Catching fire like kerosene
 And you know I'd never let you down
 'Til the sun comes up, we can own this town
 Something like make-believe
 Living in a movie scene
 We know this is the way it's supposed to be
 So we're taking the long way home
 'Cause I don't wanna be wasting my time alone
 I wanna get lost and drive forever with you
 Talking about nothing, yeah, whatever, baby
 So we're taking the long way home
 Hitting every red light
 Kissing at the stop signs, darling
 Green Day's on the radio
 And everything is alright
 Now we're turning off the headlights, darling
 We're just taking it slow
 So we're taking the long way home
 'Cause I don't wanna be wasting my time alone
 I wanna get lost and drive forever with you
 Talking about nothing, yeah, whatever, baby
 So we're taking the long way home
 Hitting every red light
 Kissing at the stop signs, darling
 Green Day's on the radio
 And everything is alright
 Now we're turning off the headlights, darling
 We're just taking it slow
 We're taking the long way home
 We're taking the long way home
 We're taking the long way home
