His eyes appear vacant

He′d taken more than his share

Tryin' hard not to awakenThe voice of regret in his ear

He can′t escape the timeline

So much worse than he had feared

Lived every moment

Wishin' the past would disappear

He took the long way

On the freeway

He took the long way

On the freeway

She was his all and everything

But her strength, it needed space

Her love was but a haunting

She left but never went away

She took the long way

On the freeway

She took the long way

On the freeway

She took the long way (long way)

On the freeway

She took the long way (long way)

On the freeway

She took the long way

On the freeway

She took the long way

On the freeway

She took the long way (long way)

On the freeway

She took the long way (long way)

On the freeway

She took the long, long way!

Well it couldn't be had

What he wanted to hold

Oh, he dared to let go

He should′ve known

She took the long way (long way)

On the freeway

She took the long way (long way)

On the freeway
