Nine times out of ten I'll take my own cab home
Thank him for the drinks and spend the night alone
But when I feel as high as my soul does low
The angel on my shoulder dares to show
I take the long way home
I take the long way home
After all you put me through
Love is just a liar by another name
Lust is just a fire I've been tryin' to tame
I fuel it if I must but keep the heat contained
It's the winds inside my heart that fan my flame
I take the long way home
I take the long way home
After all you put me through
Yeah, I take the long way home
I take the long way home
Where I haven't gone is where you led me to
Out here on this dark road
I'm not even sure
If I wanna make it to my door
Lately it don't keep the peace
That I need to sleep anymore
Nine times out of ten I'll write my number wrong
If I wasn't lonesome, how would I stay strong
When depression's dark as the night is long
A pair of arms becomes where I belong
I take the long way home
I take the long way home
After all you put me through
Yeah, I take the long way home
I take the long way home
After all you put me through
And I take the long way home
I take the long way home
What I haven't done is what you made me do
Nine times out of ten I take my own cab home
Thank him for the drinks and spend the night alone
Take the lyrical bite of early Kacey Musgraves and the lush instrumentation of later Kacey Musgraves, bump up the atmospherics and add some amazing performances from the backing band, and make it somehow even catchier, and you have Desert Dove. Michaela Anne is carving a wonderful sound for herself in country, easy to get lost in and yet substantive and satisfying. Owen W
