Bob Seger - The Long Way Home lyrics

Winners, losers and small time misusers do what they must on their own Lovers, dreamers and beautiful schemers all take the long way home some have their reasons some lose their way they all want so much to succeed how do you tell them apart the best of them leave with their hearts Now that it's summer I went to the river the water was never too cold always together through all kinds of weather we took the long way home she was the best I ever knew somehow she drifted away Now that I'm older the nights seems much colder I spend too much time alone sometimes in summer I kept thinking of her and I'll take the long way home I'll still take the long way home
