Lyrics
As the waves crash against my face
Feeling the impact of the waves on my face
Come along it'll be nighttime soon
Join me soon; it will become nighttime
Come along grab a brew or two
Come with me, have a drink or two
We're in for the long way round
We're opting for the longer, more adventurous route
Cracking jokes in Sammy's ute
Joking around in Sammy's car
Snuck a mate back in the boot
Sneaked a friend into the trunk of the car
Mates are laying down on the shore
Friends lying down on the shore
Got nothin' left to look for
Feeling like there's nothing more to search for
Oh, This place doesn't have any meaning
Despite lacking significance, this place still attracts me
But it still brings me in
I need to manage this feeling; lost control and need to navigate through
I gotta control this feeling, lost my paddle I gotta swim
I'm going to settle down and take a longer, more deliberate path
I'm gonna settle on down
Choosing to take a longer, unconventional route
And take the long way round
Embracing the longer, unconventional journey
Oh take it the long way round
Reiterating the decision to take the longer path
Oh she said (She said)
A reference to someone's statement
I'll never cry I'll just dance around in the moonlight
Opting not to cry but to enjoy life in the moonlight
Oh spread out my wings
Expressing a desire to explore and expand horizons
Oh I may be trippin' but I just wanna jus' wanna take flight
Feeling like taking off and exploring, despite uncertainty
Oh as the waves crash against my face
Reiterating the feeling of waves hitting the face
Come along it'll be be nighttime soon
Invitation to join before it gets dark
Come along grab a brew or two
Encouragement to share a drink or two
Oh we're in for the long way round
Confirming the commitment to the longer, more unconventional path
We're in for the long way round
Reaffirmation of embracing the longer journey
Oh coz we're surfing a wave of daze and confusion
Feeling disoriented and confused while enjoying the ride
And I got no excuses left to borrow
Feeling out of excuses to justify actions
Oh this life might be full of fame and amusement
Life might seem exciting and entertaining, but there's a reminder of its cyclic nature
But just remember the sun will still come up tomorrow
Encouragement to remember that life goes on
