Kickin back at the old schoolyard
Singing songs on our guitars
This is our reality
Crazy stupid, you and me

We know this is the way it’s supposed to be
So we’re taking the long way home
Cuz I don’t wanna be wasting my time alone
I wanna get lost and drive forever with you, talkin bout nothing, yeah whatever, babe
So we’re taking the long way home tonight

Now we’re stuck in the middle of nowhere
Yeah you know we took our time to get there
We’re hiding out in a dream
Catching fire like kerosene
And you know I’d never let you down
Til the [bad word] up, we can own this town
Something like make-believe
Living in a movie scene

I know this is the way it’s supposed to be
So we’re taking the long way home
Cuz I don’t wanna be wasting my time alone
I wanna get lost and drive forever with you, talkin bout nothing, yeah whatever, babe
So we’re taking the long way home

Sitting at the red light
Kissing at the stop signs, darling
Green Day’s on the radio
And everything is alright
Now we’re turning off the headlights, darling…
