[Verse 1]
Can we take the long way home
'Cause moments like this are hard to hold on to
I know it's not easy on your own
When the pieces don't fit
That's all we've ever known
It's all
I'll be holding on to you
If it's the last thing that I ever do

[Chorus]
(La la la la la)
You'll be my only ticket home
(La la la la la)
I need to feel a heart I know
(La la la la la)
Soon we will never be alone
(La la la la la)
You'll be my only ticket home

[Verse 2]
Oh, I've been away for so long
It's like I'm the ghost in your bedroom
But that never keeps you warm
I'm so sick of happy sad songs
They don't work like they used to
And they don't mean a thing without you
[Chorus]
(La la la la la)
You'll be my only ticket home
(La la la la la)
I need to feel a heart I know
(La la la la la)
Soon we will never be alone
(La la la la la)
You'll be my only ticket home

[Bridge]
You'll be my only ticket home
My only ticket home
(La la la la la)
Soon we will never be alone
(La la la la la)

[Outro]
Can we take the long way home
'Cause moments like this
I had to let them go
