Wait
There's something I gotta say to you
Something I've always wanted to
Always on my mind

Please, don't put it all on me
It was never meant to be
I gave in too easily

And I'm scared, and I'm tired
I don't wanna fight
I can't change the world
I haven't got the nerve

And I'm wrong and I'm right
But it's set in stone
Did you ever love somebody so,
You turn around and let them go?

I'll take the long way home
I'll take the long way home

Hide, hide away your grace
It's too good to waste
On a fool like me

Run, run that river dry
Tears that I don't cry
Memories won't fade and die

And I'm scared, and I'm tired
I don't wanna fight
I can't change the world
I haven't got the nerve

And I'm wrong and I'm right
But it's set in stone
Did you ever love somebody so
You turn around and let them go?

I'll take the long way home
I'll take the long way home

Have you ever had to tear yourself
Have you ever had to tear yourself
Have you ever had to tear yourself away?

Have you ever had to bear yourself
With no way to prepare yourself
Have you ever had to tear yourself away?

And I'm scared and I'm tired
I don't wanna fight
I can't change the world
I haven't got the nerve

And I'm wrong and I'm right
But it's set in stone
Did you ever love somebody so
You turn around and let them go?

I'll take the long way home
I'll take the long way home
