Lyrics
(A cappella)
Just a little gravity assist
Couple light-years on the odometer's list
Round the dark side of the town I know
Yeah, I always take the long way home
[Verse 1]
The Pungo Ferry Bridge is breathing heat at the sky
Humid on the vinyl where my bare leg lies
Cicada static fuzzin' on a private wave
In the July dark, I chart the course you gave
[Chorus]
Just a little gravity assist
Couple light-years on the odometer's list
Round the dark side of the town I know
Yeah, I always take the long way home
[Verse 2]
The drafting chair is empty, see your ghost in the grain
"'The straightest line ain't the smartest,' you'd whisper in the rain."
So I trace the shoreline where the naval base sleeps

Just a little gravity assist
Couple light-years on the odometer's list
Round the dark side of the town I know
Yeah, I always take the long way home
[Bridge]
'Cause the click of the thermostat just shouts your names
And this engine's frequency is all that feels the same
[Outro]
Headlights cut the driveway… I'm almost home
(Music cuts out — 4 seconds of silence)
[Coda]
(Whispered, close-mic'd)
Just a little gravity assist… to miss you
