His eyes appear vacant
he'd taken more
than his share
trying hard not to awaken
the voice of regret
in his ear
He can't escape
the timeline
so much worse
than he had feared
lived every moment
Wishing 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
on the freeway
She took the 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
on the freeway
She took the long way
on the freeway
She took the
long, long wa......y
well it couldn't be had
what he wanted to hold
Oh he dared to let g...o
he should of known
she took the long way
on the freeway
she took the long way
on the freeway
