The Long Way Round
Lyricist:Gerry Rafferty Composer:Gerry Rafferty
I stood and looked across the water I had to get to the other side Because I knew that you'd be waiting I didn't want to take the long way round
The captain said the ship was leaving And that we'd better get onboard I settled down to watch the sun rise And wondered if I'd see the sun go down
The sea was rough and the wind was howling But I was laughing all the way I didn't care about the weather Because I knew that you'd be waiting I didn't want to take the long way round
Then a stranger sat beside me It was my brother in disguise Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com He said he knew where I was going He asked me why I took the long way round
The sea was rough and the wind was howling But I was laughing all the way I didn't listen to the stranger Because I knew that you'd be waiting I didn't want to take the long way round
At last I get to my destination The stranger turned and walked away He didn't know where he was going He said he had to take the long way round
I stood and looked across the water I thought of what I'd left behind Because I knew that you'd be waiting I didn't want to take the long way round
