Met a child of the Cosmos on the streets of Kanab
He pointed the way, answered the questions I had
But a shortcut through Utah doesn't mean a bad trip
It just send you through a mountain, out a hole in a cliff
The long way isn't the wrong way
And the wrong turn isn't the end
If it's understood, maybe something good
Is coming at you 'round the bend
Left Flagstaff in the morning to make Salt Lake by night
Driving 'cross the moon, hoping it's right
When we went into a fog near the state line
Well, we didn't care much about losing time
The long way isn't the wrong way
And the wrong turn isn't the end
If it's understood, maybe something good
Is coming at you 'round the bend
On Highway 80, just out of the hills
Hit something slick and about took a spill
On the plateau in snow axle deep
Still made it to Rock Springs in time for some sleep
Been a mile high for nearly a week
It's gonna wear off below twelve hundred feet
We're coming down soon traveling I-35
Singing songs and glad to be alive
The long way isn't the wrong way
And the wrong turn isn't the end
If it's understood, maybe something good
Is coming at you 'round the bend
Yeah, the long way isn't the wrong way
And the wrong turn isn't the end
If it's understood, maybe something good
Is coming at you 'round the bend
