Take me back to the middle
of nowhere
Back to the place
only you and I share
Remember all the memories
The fireflies and make believe
Kicking back
in the old school yard
Singing songs on our guitars
This is our reality
Crazy stupid you and me
We know this is the way
it’s supposed to be
So we’re taking the long way home
Cuz I don’t wanna be
wasting my time alone
I wanna get lost and
drive forever with you
talkin bout nothing
yeah whatever babe
So we’re taking the long way
home tonight
Now we’re stuck in the middle
of nowhere
Yeah you know
we took our time to get there
We’re hiding out in a dream
Catching fire like kerosene
And you know
I’d never let you down
'Til the sun comes up
we can own this town
Something like make believe
Living in a movie scene
I know this is the way
it’s supposed to be
So we’re taking the long way home
Cuz I don’t wanna be
wasting my time alone
I wanna get lost and
drive forever with you
talkin bout nothing
yeah whatever babe
So we’re taking the long way home
Hitting every red light
Kissing at the stop signs darling
Green Day’s on the radio
And everything is alright
Now we’re turning off
the headlights darling
We're just taking it slow
So we’re taking the long way home
Cuz I don’t wanna be
wasting my time alone
I wanna get lost and
drive forever with you
talkin bout nothing
yeah whatever babe
So we’re taking the long way home
Hitting every red light
Kissing at the stop signs darling
Green Day’s on the radio
And everything is alright
Now we’re turning off
the headlights darling
We're just taking it slow
Taking the long way home
Taking the long way home
Taking the long way home
