Verse 1
There's a sadness in the air
On the train to Tennessee
And I know there's no
angel watching over me
All I have to hold
Is this atlas and
a note that reads
If ever you are ready
to come home again
I'll be waiting up
But please don't be too long
You know I never meant
to make you lonesome
But I got my own plans
And if you love me understand
I've got to take this road
to find out who I really am
Chorus 1
So tonight I'll take
the long way home
And drink until I
can't remember you
Or why I ever started
If I can't hold you
Gonna fold you like a
note and keep you here
With me
Verse 2
Thought about your smile
On the car ride up to Madison
Are you still letting go?
Are you still letting go?
Cause I've been trying to move on
But I'm feeling so damn lost
Without your love
Without your love
(Repeat Chorus)
I want you here
With me
Interlude

Chorus 2
So tonight I'll take
the long way home
And drink with me
until the sun comes up
look at what we started
If I can't hold you
Gonna fold you like a
note and keep you here
With me
