Story behind the song
I always loved Eagle Eye Cherry, especially Save Tonight and Long Way Around. Bernice liked my music and offered to do some vocals with her lovely voice if I would make a new song.
In fact I sang one verse aswell... it's at 2:15, and in the end of that verse there are six voices at the same time.
Lyrics
You say what you say
And you pray that one day
You'll be seen between the shadows
Now that's the waste of your pain
Living your life like a saint
When it don't... no
Don't even matter
Even saints make their mistakes
Letting their dreams fall and break
All it feels like
Living in sunshine with the shades pulled down
Now I want you to see
How good life can be
You can turn around
And better your life
With the good times found
[Chorus:]
People will always take the long way around
Before you know it you'll be lost and found
Livin' in sunshine with the shades pulled down
People will always take the long way around
People will always take the long way around
Before you know it you'll be lost and found
Livin' in sunshine with the shades pulled down
People will always take the long way around
I'm not afraid of pride
When it's for the right side
Don't betray
what I believe in
Stand where you wanna stand
And I'll believe when I can
'Cause I'm telling you now
I been where you're living in
[Chorus:]
People will always take the long way around
Before you know it you'll be lost and found
Livin' in sunshine with the shades pulled down
People will always take the long way around
People will always take the long way around
Before you know it you'll be lost and found
Livin' in sunshine with the shades pulled down
People will always take the long way around
Will tomorrow keep it's promise
No one here can say
The past is all behind us
And all we have is today
And all we have is today
[Chorus:]
People will always take the long way around
Before you know it you'll be lost and found
Livin' in sunshine with the shades pulled down
People will always take the long way around
People will always take the long way around
Before you know it you'll be lost and found
Livin' in sunshine with the shades pulled down
People will always take the long way around
