[Verse 1] You left a paper kite On the balcony rail It tugged against the morning Like a small silver sail I wrote your name in pencil Beside the window vine And watched the garden answer With one new leaf in time [Chorus] Come, take the long way home with me Past gardens painted blue The world has made a little room For something bright and new No hurry in the afternoon No map we need to know Just follow where the sparrows turn And let the easy day unfold [Verse 2] The tailor on the corner Hums while he mends a sleeve A child spins in the doorway With ribbons on her knees The old clock in the station Has finally learned to rest And every passing stranger Looks lighter than the last [Chorus] Come, take the long way home with me Past gardens painted blue The world has made a little room For something bright and new No hurry in the afternoon No map we need to know Just follow where the sparrows turn And let the easy day unfold [Bridge] If clouds arrive, we'll count them If rain begins, we'll stay There are a thousand little songs Inside an ordinary day [Chorus] Come, take the long way home with me Past gardens painted blue The world has made a little room For something bright and new No hurry in the afternoon No map we need to know Just follow where the sparrows turn And let the easy day unfold [Outro] The kite is on the balcony The garden leans toward you And somewhere past the quiet roofs The sky is turning blue
