The Long Way

She was lost
And I thought I was found
Even so I tried
To bring her inShe was young
And I had just begun
To learn that even
Losing men can winWe went the long way
We went the long way
We went the long way
Or maybe just the wrong way
I'll never knowOvernight
We were shown the light
Neither of us knew
To look awaySo we burned
And far too late we learned
That lifetimes can't be lived out
In a dayWe went the long way
We went the long way
We went the long way
Or maybe just the wrong way
I'll never knowSo, goodbye
At least we made the try
Something can be said
For love that's pureIf and when
We ever try again
One thing will be known
To us for sureWe'll go the long way
We'll go the long way
We'll go the long way
Or maybe just the wrong way
I'll never know, I'll never know
