Phoebe Lyrics

grandma's got cancer smokes a pack a half a day
mom says she loves her but she buys them anyway
dad's just started drinking quarter crown a day
his daughters at school with a kid on the way
his son's in the basement singing out a song
singing out a song we can all sing along
never was a rich kid never made a fuss
trying to make a dollar off of pennies on the bus
oh we've been wrong
mistakes made us strong
we found where we belong
and tonight we'll sing

we'll take the long way home tonight
and I'm chasing every moment like my hand's on the clock tonight
and i'm tossing and turning i'm lost but i'm learning
the long way home tonight
long way tonight
Ooh
if I could take back the times I made my mother cry
and staring at the floor when I can look her in the eye
I try to move forward but i'm tripping on the past
the best things in life they seem they never last
but son still in the basement singing out a song
singing out a song we can all sing along
never was a rich kid never made a fuss
now i'm a young man waiting for the bus
oh we've been wrong
mistakes made us strong
we found where we belong
and tonight we'll sing

and we never would have sang it if we never made sense

we'll take the long way home tonight
and I'm chasing every moment like my hand's on the clock tonight
and i'm tossing and turning i'm lost but i'm learning
the long way home tonight
long way tonight
