Long Way Home Lyrics


So you think you're a Romeo
playing a part in a picture-show
Take the long way home
Take the long way home'Cause you're the joke of the neighborhood
Why should you care if you're feeling good
Take the long way home
Take the long way homeBut there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery
All the greenery is comin' down, boy
And then your wife seems to think you're part of the
furniture oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice.When lonely days turn to lonely nights
You take a trip to the city lights
And take the long way home
Take the long way homeYou never see what you want to see
Forever playing to the gallery
You take the long way home
Take the long way homeAnd when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable,
Oh unforgettable, how they adore you,
But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity,

Oh, calamity, is there no way out?Does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe?
Oh, it has to be for you to grow , boy.
When you look through the years and see what you could
have been oh, what you might have been,
If you'd had more time.So, when the day comes to settle down,
Who's to blame if you're not around?
You took the long way home
You took the long way home...

Supertramp was a British progressive rock and pop band that had a series of top-selling albums in the 1970s.

The band was formed in the United Kingdom in 1969. Co-founder, composer and lead singer, Roger Hodgson left the band in 1983 to bring up his children. In 1988, Supertramp re-formed with some former members plus several new ones, and continue to tour. All the band members were musicians capable of playing multiple types of instruments, including brass and woodwinds.

Music in their early period consisted of ambitious concept albums, but they are best known for their pop songs including "Dreamer", "Give a Little Bit"," Goodbye Stranger", and "The Logical Song". The band's name was taken from W.H. Davies' 1908 novel The Autobiography of a Super-Tramp.

Their albums Crime Of The Century (1974) and Even In The Quietest Moments (1977) were both produced by former Beatles producer Ken Scott. Their 1979 album Breakfast In America reached number one on the Billboard album charts (number three in the UK) and was certified Platinum four times by the RIAA.
