The road is quiet now We walked this road together Through every kind of rain Some days felt like forever Some disappeared like names The stones remember footsteps The walls remember sound And every little promise Still seems to linger round So don't look back in sorrow Don't call the journey wrong Some things are meant to leave us Before we know they're gone Take the long way home Take your time tonight Let the fading shadows Disappear into the light Take the long way home Carry what was true Not everything we lose Was ever meant to stay with you There was a door we opened There was a world we knew There were a thousand moments I would still choose you But time has its own language And hearts can change their tune A summer cannot hold forever The shape of every moon So don't look back in sorrow Don't carry every scar The things that shaped our story Will always know who we are Take the long way home Take your time tonight Let the fading shadows Disappear into the light Take the long way home Carry what was true Not everything we lose Was ever meant to stay with you And if you hear my voice When the evening settles down It isn't calling you back It's only saying You were loved Mmm... Ahh... Ohh... Take the long way home Take your time tonight Let the fading shadows Disappear into the light Take the long way home Leave the past behind Some roads end gently Some memories remain The road is quiet now The night is soft and still And somewhere beyond the silence There is another hill
