Longest Road

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sunset burning on the dashboard light Windows down on a Friday night Small town fading in the rearview glow No map needed, baby let’s just go Radio playing our favorite song Two hearts running where we belong Every mile feels like a memory made With your blue eyes and the plans we never made [Pre-Chorus] We got nowhere to be tonight Just the stars and these tail lights Hold my hand, let the engine hum Baby, we ain't done [Chorus] Baby I’d rather take the long way Take the longest road Maybe never come home What do you say if we leave? Take the long way Let the whole world go Baby, I’d rather take the long way If you’re riding with me [Verse 2] Gas station coffee and a cracked-up sign Your laugh hits hard when you read mine That old diner still on the county line We kissed in the parking lot one more time Your window rolled down, my heart wide open Every promise we made feels unspoken If this is lost, then I don't wanna be found Just keep this truck pointed out of town [Pre-Chorus] We got nowhere to be tonight Just the stars and these tail lights Hold my hand, let the engine hum Baby, we ain't done [Chorus] Baby I’d rather take the long way Take the longest road Maybe never come home What do you say if we leave? Take the long way Let the whole world go Baby, I’d rather take the long way If you’re riding with me [Bridge] Let the miles stack up Let the moon hang low If this night is a dream Don’t wake us up slow One more turn, one more song One more kiss before dawn If the map burns out We’ll still ride on [Chorus] Baby I’d rather take the long way Take the longest road Maybe never come home What do you say if we leave? Take the long way Let the whole world go Baby, I’d rather take the long way If you’re riding with me
