Discover the story of the song > The Long Way Home – Norah Jones

The protagonist is lost and alone, and although she said she would lead them home, she stumbles in the darkness. She admits that she always takes the long way home, even though she loves her partner very much. Money means nothing to her, but she would trade everything for the freedom of the highway. The song ends with an invitation to her partner to come with her on the long way home, where they can be alone and enjoy each other's company.
