"Long Island" by Hoodie Allen feat. Adam Pastel follows a couple caught between city life and the pull of a quieter future together. The longing for home becomes inseparable from longing for each other, as distance and touring make even shared spaces feel lonely. The repeated invitation to come back to Long Island works as both a literal return and a promise of stability, a split ranch and picket fence life. The emotional conflict eases into commitment, with both voices admitting they would go to hell and back for each other.
Long Island Lyrics by Hoodie Allen
(Feat. Adam Pastel)
Come back back to come back home
Come back back to come back home
Come back back to come back home
Come back home with me to Long Island
I know you envision a life of something I can give you
Putting our problems to the side like they in the rear view
Communication’s what you serve and I ain’t have to tip you
Don’t want to navigate this all alone if I ain’t with you
I even miss you when we in the same apartment
Some say it’s toxic but I say it’s charming
Not co dependent not something to be alarmed with
But every time I leave that’s when it’s starting
And baby I’m homesick holding on to you
And you know there’s nothing, nothing
Nothing I can’t do
Take the wheel, keep on driving
Me and you’s like perfect timing
This so real, just can’t fight it
Come back home with me to Long Island
And I can’t take the city anymore
Come back home with me to Long Island
Split ranch 2 bed picket fence life
And you could be everything I needed in a wife
You don’t gotta panic you’re never out of my sight
Even if I’m on a tour, I’m on my way on a flight
And I know it feel bad to have all this distance
But I’m thanking G-d you existed
Hear u when u say I don’t listen
Well lets keep it simplistic
And baby I’m homesick holding on to you
And you know there’s nothing, nothing
Nothing I can’t do
Take the wheel, keep on driving
Me and you’s like perfect timing
This so real, just can’t fight it
Come back home with me to Long Island
And I can’t take the city anymore
Come back home with me to Long Island
Running from the life that I
I used to want one time
I might look you in the eyes
Tell you what’s on my mind
I don’t want nothing else
Found each other now we gotta find ourselves
But I think I could be that for you
FYI I’d go to hell and back for you
Well baby I’m homesick holding on to you
And you know there’s nothing, nothing
Nothing I can’t do
Take the wheel, keep on driving
Me and you’s like perfect timing
This so real, just can’t fight it
Come back home with me to Long Island
And I can’t take the city anymore
Come back home with me to Long Island
Come back back to come back home
Come back back to come back home
Come back back to come back home
Come back home with me to Long Island
