Long drive, long night
The best night of my life
With you riding, your hand on my hand
The thought of arriving, kind of feels like dying
I don't want to go home and be alone
Could we stay out?
Could you
Drive a little slower, don't matter where we're going
As long as I'm with you, we can take the long way
Chevy Nova, front seat, sofa, getting closer to you
Drive a little slower, don't matter where we're going
As long as I'm with you, we can take the long way
Drive a little slower, not ready to go home
I'd rather stay with you
We can take the long way out, to the country out of town
Let's get lost, I don't wanna be found
Let's get away now and be careful not to crash
There's no defrost and we're steaming the glass
You and the road have a generous shoulder
We can pull over and say we took the long way
Headlights (headlights), strobe lights (strobe lights)
I can see you (see you), but not quite (not quite)
I can feel you (feel you) inside (inside)
The timing (timing) is just right (just right)
For the moment (moment)
I don't want (don't want) to go home (go home)
Take the long way, yeah
Whoa whoa whoa
Take the long way now
Whoa whoa whoa-oh
Drive a little slower, don't matter where we're going, going now
Whoa
Drive a little slower, don't matter where we're going, going now
Whoa
Drive a little slower, not ready to go home
I'd rather stay with you
We can take the long way
Long drive, long night
The best night of my life
