1
The other night I took the long way home
2
Out past the old schoolyard
3
It's funny how you keep it all inside
4
Dreams they do die hard
5
I closed my eyes and I could see your face
6
Somewhere back in time
7
One summer night a million miles ago
8
Back when you were mine
9
Say yes, say no, say that I'm grabbing at shadows
10
But don't carve the words in stone
11
I know it's late
12
But can't you see I was only
13
Taking the long way home
14
Sometimes its easy to get all wrapped up
15
In trying to be free
16
And all those dreams I sailed away to find
17
Were right in front of me
18
Say yes, say no, say that I'm grabbing at shadows
19
But don't carve the words in stone
20
One of these days
21
You're gonna see I was only
22
Taking the long way home
23
Although the letters stopped many years ago
24
I'll show you even time could not keep this heart
25
from letting go
26
The other night I took the long way home
27
Out past the old schoolyard
28
It's funny how you keep it all inside
29
Dreams they do die hard
30
Say yes, say no, say that I'm grabbing at shadows
31
But don't leave me here all alone
32
One of these days
33
You're gonna see I was only
34
Taking the long way home
35
Say yes, say no
36
But don't leave me here all alone
37
One of these days
38
You're gonna see I was only
39
Taking the long way home
