[Intro: Luke]
So we're taking the long way home
[Verse 1: Luke]
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
[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
We know this is the way it's supposed to be
[Chorus: All & Luke]
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 'bout nothing, yeah whatever baby
So we're taking the long way home tonight
We're taking the long way home
[Verse 2: Michael]
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
[Pre-Chorus: All]
We know this is the way it's supposed to be
[Chorus: All]
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 'bout nothing, yeah whatever baby
So we're taking the long way home
[Bridge: Calum]
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
[Chorus: Luke & All]
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 'bout nothing, yeah whatever baby
So we're taking the long way home
[Bridge: Calum]
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
[Outro: Luke]
We're taking the long way home
We're taking the long way home
We're taking the long way home
