On the Wheel

Long as there’s a river running back into the sea

Calling out to all the lonely people 

Long as there’s a road that has you sitting next to me

Driving home with one hand on the wheel

I will wait

And take the long way

Long as there’s a voice that can be singing in the air

Be it happiness or of confusion 

And tiny lights to flicker through the branches up the stairs 

When you finally know there’s nothing left to lose and

I will wait

And take the long way

Long as you remember that I loved you all the time

Even when I had to tell you goodbye

And I still walk around a lot and have you on my mind

And when I see my street you know that sometimes 

I still wait

And take the long way
