Lyrics: Take The Short Way Home

Take the short way hom.

You've been making up your mind.
And I can save you from the trouble
that your heart is going through.
And I can tell you what your future's gonna be.
Maybe we can open up your eyes.
Baby, you can't leave me now.

There is lightning in the city.
Stranger than you ever saw.
Get back to your special lover.
And I won't ever turn on you or tell you
you should tell me where you go.

Just take the short way home.
Baby, take care of yourself.
In this world of evil.
I can keep you to myself.

Take the short way home.
You'll be safe here by my side.
In this world of evil.
I can keep you satisfied.

And you can make it easy on yourself.
Some other love may call my name when you're away.
And I'll be gone.
There's no other who could ever love you more.
Keep talking to myself when I'm alone.
I don't want to be alone.

Crazy people in the shadows.
Love is only what you find.
Come back here and you'll discover
there ain't nothing you been searching for.
I could not give you now if you were mine

Just take the short way home.
Baby, take care of yourself.
In this world of evil.
I can keep you to myself.

Take the short way home.
You'll be safe her by my side.
In this world of evil.
I can keep you satisfied.

Crazy people in the shadows.
Love is only what you find.
Come back here and you'll discover
there ain't nothing you been searching for.
I could not give you now if you were mine.

Must take the short way home.
Baby, take care of yourself.
In this world of evil.
I can keep you for myself.

Take the short way home.
You'll be safe here by my side.
In this world of evil.
I can keep you satisfied.

Take the short way home...
