Longer Road

Balsamo Collins

Loneliness can fall

Cross a crowded room

Providence still calls

When you play your hand too soon

What makes you react

Can't explain away all the sparks

You're losing all the facts

When you're hiding in the dark

What you're hiding in the dark

I can't see the road behind us

I can't see what lies ahead

Let's take the longer road

Take the longer road

Instead

A cautionary route

Was always ours to take

But rules are always rules

Till you find the point to break

Will we learn from our mistakes

I can't see the road behind us

I can't see what lies ahead

Let's take the longer road

Take the longer road

Instead

And we shine

Shine

Shine a light

C'mon and shine

Shine a light

Let the path get us lost get broken and tossed away from all we know

I can't see the road behind us

I can't see what lies ahead

Let's take the longer road

Let's Take the longer road

Instead

I can see

See what lies behind us

See what lies ahead

Let's take the longer road

Instead
