Long Way Round letra

I Stood and Looked Across the Water
I Had to Get to the Other Side
Because I Knew That You'd Be Waiting
I Didn't Want to Take the Long Way Round

The Captain Said the Ship Was Leaving
And That We'd Better Get On Board
I Settled Down to Watch the Sunrise
And Wondered If I'd See the Sun Go Down

The Sea Was Rough and the Wind Was Howling
But I Was ?letting no Other? Way
I Didn't Care About the Weather
Because I Knew That You'd Be Waiting
I Didn't Want to Take the Long Way Round

Then a Stranger Sat Beside Me
It Was My Brother in Disguise
He Said He Knew Where I Was Going
He Asked Me Why I Took the Long Way Round

The Sea Was Rough and the Wind Was Howling
But I Was ?letting no Other? Way
I Didn't Listen to the Stranger
Because I Knew That You'd Be Waiting
I Didn't Want to Take the Long Way Round

At Last, I Came to My Destination
The Stranger Turned and Walked Away
He Didn't Know Where He Was Going
He Said He Had to Take the Long Way Round

I Stood and Looked Across the Water
I Thought of What I'd Left Behind
Because I Knew That You'd Be Waiting
I Didn't Want to Take the Long Way Round
