Երգի խոսքեր
[Verse 1] You left a note beside the kettle Drawn in blue across the page Meet me where the garden settles Past the gate and past the sage I wore your old green cardigan With the button made of wood And every little thing went right The way a lucky morning should [Pre-Chorus] Bring the blanket, bring the basket Bring the story you forgot There is plenty in this weather For the two of us to find [Chorus] Come on, take the long way home Past the apple trees in bloom We can make a little world With a picnic and a tune If the afternoon runs late We will let it wander on You and I can keep the day Like a ribbon in a song [Verse 2] We found a button in the clover And a feather by the stream You made up a town called Clover I became its mayor queen Then the clouds began to gather Soft as flour in the air You said, “Rain can make us laugh,” And pulled me spinning from my chair [Pre-Chorus] Bring the blanket, bring the basket Bring the smile you always hide There is plenty in this weather For the two of us to find [Chorus] Come on, take the long way home Past the apple trees in bloom We can make a little world With a picnic and a tune If the afternoon runs late We will let it wander on You and I can keep the day Like a ribbon in a song [Bridge] Years may fold the map we carried Names may fade from garden gates But I’ll remember how you hurried To save the peaches from the rain [Chorus] Come on, take the long way home Past the apple trees in bloom We can make a little world With a picnic and a tune If the afternoon runs late We will let it wander on You and I can keep the day Like a ribbon in a song [Outro] The kettle sings, the windows shine Your green sleeve brushes mine Take the long way, don’t be gone Keep this little day along
