The Long Way Around — Linda Ronstadt

written by Ken Edwards Third Story Music Inc (BMI)

It's a cinch that I've been wrong And it's clear it's not been long Since I was hard on you But now a time has come When yesterday don't mean nothin' Now I'm in love with you And you've taken me the long way around

Take a look how young we are A month has changed the moon and the stars Changing the things we do You've been lookin' for something strong When other things don't mean nothin' Now I'm in love with you And you've taken me the long way around

Well I can't see beyond the doubt that's in your eye It's on the outskirts of my fading alibi

It's a cinch that I've been wrong And it's clear it's not been long Since I was hard on you But now a time has come When yesterday don't mean nothin' Now I'm in love with you And you've taken me the long way around Now I'm in love with you And you've taken me the long way around
