Lyrics

And how’s about taking the long way home?
I’ve never seen this part of the world before
And I prefer birds and slow rising sun
To the race of a morning from a starting gun
And how’s about taking the long way round?
We could just bumble from town to town
Do nothing but drive, soak up the miles
Ignore all the rest and go out in style
You told me before though our lives are quite small
They are full of the things we need
We need nothing more than a life that is warm
And your baby girl on your knee
Your baby girl on your knee
And how’s about making some time for us?
Saying no to things takes a lot of guts
You’ve some time for this thing, but no time for that
And you’re juggling more things than a circus act
And how’s about having an easy life?
Why do you need to see your own name in lights?
Will it be worth it? Nobody knows
But you’ll sell your soul to the fashion show
You told me before though our lives are quite small
They are full of the things we need
We need nothing more than a life that is warm
And your baby girl on your knee
Your baby girl on your knee
You told me before though our lives are quite small
They are full of the things we need
We need nothing more than a life that is warm
And your baby girl on your knee
Your baby girl
