"The Long Way" lyrics

"The Long Way"

Roller coaster ride
And I've been coastin'
Tryin' hard to forget
Going back and forth
And you're ignoring
Was it something I said

Turning pages
Gettin' by
I'll be patient
And you take your time

If you wanna take the long way
Then baby that's okay
Out to Brooklyn back to Broadway
Could you help me navigate?
Try not to get too lost in the distance
You'll never know just what you were missing
If you wanna take the long way
Then that's the way we'll take

Trying not to keep it complicated
Imma leave it instead
Paint the picture
I'm there walkin' with ya
Alleyways and dead ends

Turning pages
Gettin' by
I'll be patient and you take your time

If you wanna take the long way
Then baby that's okay
Out to Brooklyn back to Broadway
Could you help me navigate?
Try not to get too lost in the distance
You'll never know just what you were missing
If you wanna take the long way
Then that's the way we'll take

Who knows where we're goin'?
Or what it'll take?
Waiting on the moment
But it's not today

If you wanna take the long way
Then baby that's okay
Out to Brooklyn back to Broadway
Could you help me navigate?
Try not to get too lost in the distance
You'll never know just what you were missing
If you wanna take the long way
Then that's the way we'll take

If you wanna take the long way
Then that's the way we'll take
