Don't think I've ever seen your kind of pretty Wandering around this midnight mad house city You got a look that says you got it all together So if you don't, mind I'd like to know you better Take me the long way around your town Where you the queen with the silver crown I want the secrets you keep, the shine underneath Of the diamond I think I just found Take me the long way around I'd love to see just where your daddy met your momma Your hand-me-down '99 Impala Show me the field you danced in clover The harvest in October When the leaves fall from the sky just like a Sunday drive Take me the long way around your town Where you the queen with the silver crown I want the secrets you keep, the shine underneath Of the diamond I think I just found Take me the long way around Didn't think tonight when I walked in I'd be falling for somewhere I've never been Take me the long way around your town Where you the queen with the silver crown I want your red blushing stories Your faults and your glories That made you who you are right now Take me the long way around Take me the long way around
