Take the short way home (intro)
You've been makin' up your mind
And I can save you from the trouble
that your heart is goin' through
And I can tell you what your
future's gonna be
Maybe we can open up your eyes
Baby , you can't leave me now
There is lightning in the city
Stranger than you ever saw
Get back to your special lover
And I won't ever turn on you or tell you
You should tell me where you go
Just take the short way home
Baby, take care of yourself
In this world of evil
I can keep you to myself
Take the short way home
You'll be safe her by my side
In this world of evil
I can keep you satisfied
And you can make it easy on yourself
Some other love may call my name when you're away
And I'll be gone
There's no other who could ever love you more
Keep talkin' to myself when I'm alone
I don't want to be alone
Crazy people in the shadows
Love is only what you find
Come back here and you'll discover
There ain't nothing you been searchin' for
I could not give you now if you were mine
Just take the short way home
Baby take care of yourself
In this world of evil
I can keep you to myself
Take the short way home
You'll be safe her by my side
In this world of evil
I can keep you satisfied
(break)
Crazy people in the shadows
Love is only what you find
Come back here and you'll discover
There ain't nothing you been searchin' for
I could not give you now if you were mine
Must take the short way home
Baby take care of yourself
In this world of evil
I can keep you for myself
Take the short way home
You'll be safe her by my side
In this world of evil
I can keep you satisfied
Take the short way home
Baby take care of yourself
In this world of evil
I can keep you for myself
Take the short way home
You'll be safe her by my side
In this world of evil
I can keep you satisfied
