Tonight I'll take the long way home
The wind is howling and my face is cold
Life is just a gamble
My money's on the table
Tonight I'll take the long way home
I've searched the corners of the world
I left my heart in the arms of a girl
She once was a treasure
But like everything I lost her
I've searched the corners of the world
Tonight I'll take the long way home
The wind is howling and my face is cold
Life is just a gamble
My money's on the table
Tonight I'll take the long way home
To think this could be the end
I'm looking back on who I've been
I used to be full of life
Now I'm walking down a long white line
To think this could be the end
Tonight I'll take the long way home
The wind is howling and my face is cold
Life is just a gamble
My money's on the table
Oh tonight I'll take the long way
I'll take the long way tonight
I'll take the long way home
