Lyrics
[Verse 1] You texted, “Five minutes,” I grabbed my old blue shoes Left the keys on the counter, nothing much to lose We cut through the market, bought peaches from a stand With a map in your pocket and my jacket in your hand [Pre-Chorus] No plan, no reason, no place we have to be The whole wide afternoon is waiting on the street [Chorus] Take the long way, turn wherever we like Miss the last train, make a story tonight No one can tell us what tomorrow should be You and me moving wild and free Take the long way, let the hours disappear Laugh so hard that the whole town can hear If the road keeps changing, let it carry us on We’ll find the next right turn before the dawn [Verse 2] We traded our change for a ride by the lake Shared one pair of headphones and a cinnamon cake Your camera caught my face when I stumbled on the dock I said, “Don’t you dare save it,” you said, “I’ll never stop” [Pre-Chorus] No plan, no reason, no place we have to be The best kind of trouble is exactly where we meet [Chorus] Take the long way, turn wherever we like Miss the last train, make a story tonight No one can tell us what tomorrow should be You and me moving wild and free Take the long way, let the hours disappear Laugh so hard that the whole town can hear If the road keeps changing, let it carry us on We’ll find the next right turn before the dawn [Bridge] Maybe someday we’ll remember this The cracked phone screen, the borrowed bliss Every wrong turn felt like a sign Every small moment became our time [Final Chorus] Take the long way, turn wherever we like Miss the last train, make a story tonight No one can tell us what tomorrow should be You and me moving wild and free Take the long way, let the hours disappear Laugh so hard that the whole town can hear If the road keeps changing, let it carry us on We’ll find the next right turn before the dawn [Outro] Keep the windows open, keep the radio low There’s another road waiting wherever we go No map in our hands, no finish line in sight Just one more turn, then one more night
