Take the Long Way Home is a song that I wrote that's on two levels - on one level I'm talking about not wanting to go home to the wife, 'take the long way home' because she treats you like part of the furniture. But there's a deeper level to the song, too. I really believe we all want to find our true home, find that place in us where we feel at home, and to me, home is in the heart. When we’re in touch with our heart and we're living our life from our heart, then we do feel like we found our home.

There was light born on the darkest day, but no-one wants to know, and no-one wants to Cry

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you radical, liberal, fanatical, criminal.

Take a look at my girlfriend, she's the only one I got. Not much of a girl friend, never seem to get a lot.

So keep your chin up, boy, forget the pain. I know you'll make it, if you try again. There's no use in quitting, when the world is waiting for you.

They sent me away to teach me how to be sensible, Logical, oh responsible, practical. And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, Oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical...

So many creeps in Hollywood.
