I stood and looked across the water

I had to get to the other side

Because I knew that you'd be waiting

I didn't want to take the long way round


The captain said the ship was leaving

And that we'd better get on board

I settled down to watch the sunrise

And wondered if I'd see the sun go down


The sea was rough and the wind was howling

But I was ?letting no other? way

I didn't care about the weather

Because I knew that you'd be waiting

I didn't want to take the long way round


Then a stranger sat beside me

It was my brother in disguise

He said he knew where I was going

He asked me why I took the long way round


The sea was rough and the wind was howling

But I was ?letting no other? way

I didn't listen to the stranger

Because I knew that you'd be waiting

I didn't want to take the long way round


At last, I came to my destination

The stranger turned and walked away

He didn't know where he was going

He said he had to take the long way round


I stood and looked across the water

I thought of what I'd left behind

Because I knew that you'd be waiting

I didn't want to take the long way round
