"Let's Take The Long Way Home" lyrics

"Let's Take The Long Way Home"

Let's take the long way home
Let's look for the long way home
And on the way let's pretend
That this wonderful night won't end

Through Asia would be much too soon
We'll circle once around the moon
Our dream boat will carry us across the foam
We'll take the long way
Make sure it's the wrong way
Let's take the long way home


Writer(s): Johnny Mercer, Harold Arlen
