Текст песни
[Verse 1] You found a map beneath the ticket booth A folded coast with a red line through You traced the bends with your thumbnail slow As if the paper knew where we should go [Pre-Chorus] No promise waiting past the county line Just two brave names and borrowed time [Chorus] Take the long way, let the miles unfold Past the wheat fields turning copper-gold If the compass shakes, let it point us free There’s a wider world than the world we see Take the long way, don’t rush the view Every unfamiliar road leads back to you [Verse 2] A roadside tower blinked a single green Above the hills and telephone seams You laughed and said, “That’s our signal now” Then lifted both your hands toward the clouds [Pre-Chorus] No perfect plan, no finish line Just open sky and borrowed time [Chorus] Take the long way, let the miles unfold Past the wheat fields turning copper-gold If the compass shakes, let it point us free There’s a wider world than the world we see Take the long way, don’t rush the view Every unfamiliar road leads back to you [Bridge] Maybe wonder is a practice Maybe courage starts out small A single turn beyond the atlas A little faith beyond the wall [Final Chorus] Take the long way, let the miles unfold Past the wheat fields turning copper-gold If the compass shakes, let it point us free There’s a wider world than the world we see Take the long way, hear the far hills call We don’t need to know the ending at all Take the long way, every mile is new And the road keeps opening with you [Outro] The road keeps opening with you
