End of the night, I put my jacket on
Calling a cab, waiting outside
You nearly passed me, but then you asked if I had a light
I told a joke and we shared a smoke or five
I said I ain't got a plan
But we could hang out 'til the morning
'Cause I don't want to leave you now
Let's take the long way home
Just a little more time alone
I don't ever want to let you go
Let's take the long way home
Let's take the long way home
I'm not ready to be alone
I don't ever want to let you go
Let's take the long way home
Let's take the long way home
I took your hand
You said I moved a little too fast, so I gave it back
You said somebody had hurt you before
And it cut you real bad
But he don't deserve you
You're going to learn I'd never do that
I said I ain't got a plan
But we could hang out 'til the morning
'Cause I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose you now
Let's take the long way home
Just a little more time alone
I don't ever want to let you go
Let's take the long way home
Let's take the long way home
