[Verse 1]
End of the night
I put my jacket on, callin' a cab
Waitin’ outside
You nearly passed me, but then you asked if I had a light
I told a joke and we shared a smoke or five

[Pre-Chorus]
I said I ain't got a plan but we could hang out 'til the morning
’Cause I don't wanna leave you now

[Chorus]
Let's take the long way home
Just a little more time alone
I don't ever wanna let you go
Let's take the long way home
Let's take the long way home
I'm not ready to be alone
I don't ever wanna let you go
Let’s take the long way home

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
I took your hand
You said I moved a little too fast so I gave it back
You said somebody had hurt you before and it cut you real bad
But he don’t deserve you, you're gonna learn I’d never do that

[Pre-Chorus]
I said I ain't got a plan but we could hang out 'til the morning
'Cause I don’t wanna lose you, I don't wanna lose you now

[Chorus]
Let's take the long way home
Just a little more time alone
I don't ever wanna let you go
Let's take the long way home
Let's take the long way home
I'm not ready to be alone
I don't ever wanna let you go
Let's take the long way home

[Drop]

[Chorus]
Let's take the long way home
Just a little more time alone
I don't ever wanna let you go
Let's take the long way home

[Outro]
Let's take the long way home
