The Long Way by Geoff Moore Lyrics

How bout we empty out our pockets
How bout we cut a few strings
I think a lighter load might be
What this journey needs

I'd like to see some open pages
I wanna watch this thing unfold
I'm ready for whatever changes
The story holds
It's the two lane, not the highway
Roll the windows down
Throw the map away

I don't know where we're going
But i believe we're still headed for home
I'm letting go of the notion
That every thing's gotta be under control
It's ok, it's ok, it's ok
To take the long way
Some say it's foolishness to wander
Some say it's weak to wonder why
But I've discovered when I'm honest
That's when my faith is most alive
It's the two lane, not the highway
Roll the windows down
Throw the map away
I don't know where we're going
But i believe we're still headed for home
I'm letting go of the notion
That every thing's gotta be under control
It's ok, it's ok, it's ok
To take the long way
The long way yeah the road less traveled
The long way, where the small things matter
If we just put our trust into the one
Whose hands made the long way

I don't know where we're going
But i believe we're still headed for home
I'm letting go of the notion
That every thing's gotta be under control
I don't know where we're going
But i believe we're still headed for home
I'm letting go of the notion
That every thing's gotta be under control

It's ok, it's ok, it's ok
To take the long way
How bout we empty out our pockets
How bout we cut a few strings
