Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How lucky am I to say that you're all mine
My valentine
Christmas lights are making your face glow
Baby you're my angel in the snow
cnd under mistletoe
Sneak out the back door, you and me lover
Get in the car, put my head on your shoulder
Take me the long way home
Take me the long way home
You're the same old flame under fireworks
Can't you feel the change in the universe
December 31st
Just cant wait till this party's over
Countdown from 10 and you come a little closer
New years kiss makes time move slower
Take me the long way home
Take me the long way home
I don't care if we make a few wrong turns
Pull off to the side let the gasoline burn
Just take me, Take me the long way home
I live for the moments when its just you and me
Lets take our time cuz I've never felt so free
When you take me the long way home
Home
I dont care if we make a few wrong turns
Pull off to the side let the gasoline burn
Take me the long way home
Take me the long way home
Home
First breath of fresh air in a long time
How lucky am I to say that you're all mine
