Long Way Around

I took the long way around
Thought that I would have time to kill
And I could linger on behind and get there still
I want to go back there again
I know that she's glad when I am
Way back again

I took the long way around
Once I know I had a reason why
Now every voice that awaits reply
Spends me without even trying
I was having a dream and woke suddenly
A fish upon the land
Way back again
