lirik lagu will oakland - the longest way round is the sweetest way home
[verse 1]
on a sweet moonlight night, all the stars shining bright
two young lovers strolled down by a stream
said the maid with a smile as they crossed o’er the stile
“bringing me this way home is real mean
now, the old way home, joe, is much shorter, you know
much shorter than this by a mile
won’t you please make it clear why you chose this way, dear?”
and this answer joe gave with a smile:
[chorus]
“the longest way round is the sweetest way home
the old road makes us part too soon
the short way’s the wrong way, the right way’s the long way
all lovеrs go that way to spoon
the long way, you see, is a great chance for mе
to tell you my love is sincere
as the longest way round is the sweetest way home
that’s why i brought you this way, dear”
[verse 2]
just a year from that day, both of them chanced to stray
by a stream to an old watermill
where she said to him, “dear, we’ve been married a year
and we seem just like two sweethearts still
now, on our way home, joe, for old time’s sake, let’s go
around the long way once again”
joe then said in reply, “all right, dearie, but why?”
and she whispered to joe this refrain:
[chorus]
“the longest way round is the sweetest way home
the old road makes us part too soon
the short way’s the wrong way, the right way’s the long way
all lovers go that way to spoon
the long way, you see, is a great chance for me
to tell you my love is sincere
as the longest way round is the sweetest way home
that’s why i brought you this way, dear”
