    Lyrics »

Winners losers and small time misusers
Do what they must on their own
Lovers dreamers and beautiful schemers
all take the long way home
Some have their reasons
Some lose their way
They all want so much to succeed
How do you tell them apart
The best of them lead with their heart

I met her in summer we went to the river
The water was never too cold
Always together through all kinds of weather
We took the long way home
She was the best I ever knew
Somehow she drifted away

Now that I'm older nights seems much colder
And I spend too much time alone
But sometimes in summer
I'll get thinkin' of her
And I'll take the long way home
I'll still take the long way home
