The Long Way Home Lyrics - The Fire Inside - Bob Seger

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
