       oh, it's peculiar, she used to be.....   so      nice.
     

Verse    
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 home.     
You never see what you want to see     
Forever playing to the gallery     
You take the long way home. Take the long way home.     

Chorus    
And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable,     
unforgettable, how they adore you,    
But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity,     
oh, calamity,  oh is there no way out?   Oh!

Chorus    
Well 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.

  Well, who's to blame if you're not around?
