Take me somewhere nice
|
To some tired island
|
In your heart called
|
Paradise
|
|
Though we wander home
|
We both feel alone
|
Like escapees with nowhere to go
|
|
I can think of a thousand ways
|
To get good and lost
|
Beyond these hopeless days
|
|
Where we'll rendezvous
|
Out of the blue,
|
And take a deep breath,
|
Just we two.
|
|
And we'll be so far gone,
|
The oars will roll on
|
And we will happily
|
Wave so long.
|
|
If we hook a dream,
|
And it tows us back down
|
This open stream
|
We'll say hello.
|
Oh, oh,
|
Take us wherever you go.
|
|
Take me somewhere deep,
|
'Cause I'm quite exhausted
|
And I need to sleep.
|
|
Or climb the great divide,
|
Or wake up beside myself,
|
Just to know I'm alive.
|
|
Every wait around
|
Pays me a visit and
|
Drags my eyelids down
|
They sting like growing pains
|
Iced in the veins
|
Of a guy who's not ready to die.
|
|
If I may be so bold,
|
I'll weather the cold,
|
'Cause I'm not afraid
|
To grow old.
|
|
If we hook a dream,
|
And it tows us back down this open stream,
|
We'll say hello,
|
Oh, oh,
|
Take us wherever you go.
