the longest way of loving you

I'm not in a hurry any more
I'm not looking for what I was before
Shortcuts don't interest me today
With you, I'll take the longest way

I'll take the longest way and enjoy the view
I'll take the longest way of loving you
It's not aimless wandering if I have a plan;
I intend to always be you man.

Don't need a quick cut to the chase
I will linger here, study your face
Take my time, make sure I really know
Every light in your eyes wherever I go.

I want to be aware of the slightest shifts
Feel the tremor beneath my fingertips
Listen for the simple quiet sounds:
each breath and each beat your heart pounds

I'll take the longest way and enjoy the view
I'll take the longest way of loving you
It's not like I'm wandering without a plan;
I intend to always be your man.

I'm not in a hurry any more
I'm not looking for what I was before
Shortcuts don't interest me today
With you, I'll take the longest way.

I'll take the longest way and enjoy the view
I'll take the longest way of loving you
