[Куплет 1] You text, “be ready,” i’m halfway out the door Two coins in my pocket, still we’re looking for more Borrowed old sunglasses, map folded in the seat Every wrong turn somehow finds a better street [Алдынғы қайырма] No plan, no clock, no reason to go home With you beside me, anywhere is close [Қайырма] We’re taking the long way, windows down Laughing at the signs as we leave this town One more mile, one more song, let the daylight run Nothing on the calendar, everything’s begun We’re taking the long way, young and free Making little memories faster than the breeze If tomorrow asks us where we’ve been We’ll say, “somewhere beautiful—let’s do it again” [Куплет 2] We stop for lemonade from a stand beside the lake Trade stories with a stranger, watch the afternoon awake Your camera’s out of battery, so we let the moment stay A postcard in our minds that no one else can take away [Алдынғы қайырма] No plan, no clock, no reason to go home With you beside me, anywhere is close [Қайырма] We’re taking the long way, windows down Laughing at the signs as we leave this town One more mile, one more song, let the daylight run Nothing on the calendar, everything’s begun We’re taking the long way, young and free Making little memories faster than the breeze If tomorrow asks us where we’ve been We’ll say, “somewhere beautiful—let’s do it again” [Көпір] Maybe we’ll miss the last train back Maybe that’s the best part of the plan We’ve got a little change and a sky turning gold And a story getting better every time it’s told [Final chorus] We’re taking the long way, windows down Turning every quiet road into our favorite sound One more mile, one more song, let the daylight run Nothing on the calendar, everything’s begun We’re taking the long way, young and free Making little memories faster than the breeze If tomorrow asks us where we’ve been We’ll say, “somewhere beautiful—let’s do it again” [Аутро] Let’s do it again Take the long way again
