Show me the way you can fight for me babe
No matter how you do it,
Show me the way you feel
Teach me how to believe in something, yeah.
Show me the way we can now be together in this world of fools
Show me the way right here
Looking inside of me
I have to give it to someone who really loves me.


Take me back,
Together we can be.
Take me back,
We need it can?t you see.
Take me back,
You shouldn?t set my love free.

Yeah Yeah Yeah.

Take me back,
Together we can be.
Take me back,
We need it can?t you see.
Take me back,
You shouldn?t set my love free.
Yeah Yeah Yeah.

If you want my loving take me back
If you miss my touch little girl take me back
When the dreams you lean on are beginning to crack
Open up your heart little girl and take me back

If you want my loving then take me back
If you’re on your own little girl take me back
When the nights grow longer turning blacker than black
Open up your heart little girl and take me back

Playing a part you’re well prepared for, there you stand
With all I ever cared for in your hand
I’m waiting all the time
For some kind of sign from you
And I’ll go on and on this way
Waiting for the day
When I will hear you say
You’ll take me back

If you want my loving well take me back
If you’re feeling down little girl
Then you’ll take me back
When you look around you for the love that you lack
Open up your heart little girl
You got my heart little girl
Make a start little girl
And say you’ll take me back
Take me back

Everyone tells me
I was dealt a losing hand
The way that I look
And the way that I act
It’s not hard to understand
Sure I got troubles
Maybe you got’em too
I’d like to explain what has happened to me
So it doesn’t happen to you

I was born in Los Angeles
Many, many, many years ago
We lived out in North Hollywood then
In a steamy little bungalow
My mother, my father
My baby brother and me
Playin’ cowboys all day
Out there in the valley
What a perfect family

Hey, hey
Get ’em up, get ’em up
Come a ti yi
Hey

Went off to high school
When I was thirteen
I was kind of advanced
If you know what I mean
Got into some trouble
Drinkin’ heavy with my friends in the hills
My daddy had to come down to the station to get me
He said, “Where is my angry young man?”

Take me back
Baby, please take me back
I don’t wanna live here by this dirty old airport
In this greasy little shack
Take me back
Baby, please take me back
Just give me a chance and we’ll start all over again

Now that young girl
Was just a summertime thing
She went back to school
When the school bell ring
Now I do my laundry by myself
Every night I eat alone
Baby please, please, please
Won’t you let me come back home

Goin’ off to college
Passed every test
They said, “Let’s send this boy to Palo Alto
He could be one of the best”
Four years at Stanford
Worked very hard
A lot of good it did me, little tramp,
Your’re ruining my life

Take me back
Baby, please take me back
I don’t wanna live here by this dirty old airport
In this greasy little shack
Take me back
Baby, please take me back
Just give me a chance
And we’ll start all over again
Just give me a chance
And we’ll start all over

My eyes were burnin’
Lookin’ back on all of my memories
And my mind was dreamin like it does
She wore white and in the night we made love
Together, I remember, together as one
It came so easy
But now it seems so long ago
My chance is fading into night
I can’t change or rearrange what I’ve done
Together, I remember, together as one
Together, I remember, together as one

Yesterday, is far away, so take me out to sea
Far away, I’ve been what never will be
Check me in, to lose or win, I’m livin’ memories
The drift begins, the dream of it sets me free

We lived each moment as if the days would never end
It seemed our lives had just begun
I can’t stay, I’ll make my way on the run
Together, I remember, together as one
Together, I remember, together as one

Yesterday, is far away, so take me out to sea
Far away, I’ve been what never will be
Check me in, to lose or win, I’m livin’ memories
The drift begins, the dream of it sets me free

Yesterday, is far away, so take me out to sea
Far away, I’ve been what never will be
Check me in, lose or win, livin’ memories
The drift begins, the dream of it sets me free

Uuuh… Take me away

Higher
Is where I wanna be
Higher
Where my Baby care of me
Higher
If you are… to entice
Higher
Show you the way to paradise

Take me away
To paradise
Take me away
To a higher ground
Take me away
To paradise
Take me away
To a higher ground
Take me away

To the montain top
Is where I wanna go
To the highest top
Is where I wanna be
To the montain top
Is where I wanna go
To the highest top
Is where I wanna be

Yeah ah, I wanna show you paradise
Yeah ah
Higher, higher, higher, higher

Uuuuh… yeah yeah yeah yeah
Higher, higher, higher, higher

Take me awaaaay… uuuuh yeah

You, there is no one like you
And all the things you do
I want to spend my time with you
I, hope that I am your type
And that we could tonight
Discover what new love is all about

Trying to close my mind of many folks running me wrong
This case won?t leave me alone
We?ve gone working the wack
Trying to trash my stature we won?t go
On a tedious to go pull strings
Turbeo wanna clip my wings
Through swadies purt to play
Rascals running with teeth quechin? needed so can you…

Take me away
Take me to a place where our love must be alone, oh yeah
Take me away
Take me by the hand and control what is going on, oh yea
No matter what we may go through you got to understand
That I want you I need you each day
So take me away
Take me to a place where our love must be alone, oh yeah

I, I never was too shy
I really don?t know why
Tonight is gonna be alright
Hey, let?s try to get away
This love is here to stay
Because you make me feel this way

Pressure wants to punch my poise
Church stealing my joys
Time strip wanna take my toys
Swindlin? my supplies
The squeeze but it?s lacking the breeze
Vics though seek the please
The readings found the gold
The devil?s taking us over
We can break for mine decay
Bitterness all over my back
Need tension, quenching, can you…

My body burns like there’s a desert deep in me
A thirsty soul so unsatisfied
But there you are like a river to the sea
The one chance I have to change my life.. Darlin’

Take me away from here
Make it seem like we’re a million miles away
Another time, another place
Make me a different man
Move me farther than I’ve ever been before
Show me that there’s something more

Sometimes I feel like I’m trapped inside myself
Spinning wheels up and down, round and round
Going nowhere just like everybody else
With no touch, no sight, no sound.. but you could

Take me away from here
Make it seem like we’re a million miles away
Another time, another place
Make me a different man
Move me farther than I’ve ever been before
Show me that there’s something more

Give me hopes and dreams to fill my head
Push my heart so I can fly again

Take me away from here
Make it seem like we’re a million miles away
Another time, another place
Make me a different man
Move me farther than I’ve ever been before
Show me that there’s something more

Take me away from here
Take me away from here
Take me away from here

(L. Payne, G. Jones)

Take me, take me to your darkest room
Close every window and bolt every door
The very first moment I heard your voice
I’d be in darkness no more

Take me to your most barren desert
A thousand miles from the nearest sea
The very moment I saw your smile
It would be like heaven to me

There’s not any mountain to rugged to climb
No desert too barren to cross
Darlin’, if you would just show a sign
Of love, I could bear with all loss

Take me to Siberia
And the coldest weather of the winter time
And it would be just like spring in California
As long as I knew you were mine

Yes, it would be just like spring in California
As long as I knew you were mine

Take me, take me

Hey thanks a lot for invading my life
Took a sweeter smell in those soulful eyes
You see into mine where I hide
I lost in you, it gets lonely sometimes
You really messed me up
You play with my mind
You keep me guessing most of the time

But baby you shake me
You know how to take me
To all those places that make me crazy
Now I know how much you really want to
But you hesitate, don’t you?

Take me apart, shine in my heart
Steal my love see if I care
Take me apart
Here in the dark
Kiss by kiss
Finish what you start
Now I’ll never be the same
So take me apart

Hey thanks a lot I’m feeling better
I feel like flying round the universe
You inflate my soul
You got me going
It feels like heaven when I’m in your arms
Now I know how much you really want to
But you hesitate, don’t you?

Take me apart, shine in my heart
Steal my love see if I care
Take me apart
Here in the dark
Kiss by kiss
Finish what you start
Now I’ll never be the same
So take me apart

Now I know how much you really want to
But you hesitate, don’t you?

Take me apart, shine in my heart
Steal my love see if I care
Take me apart
Here in the dark
Kiss by kiss
Finish what you start
Take me apart, shine in my heart
Steal my love see if I care
Take me apart
Take me apart

Baby steal my heart
Take me apart
Take me apart
Take me apart

Baby, don’t turn out the light
I wanna see you look at me
Whisper only truth tonight
Not just promises and empty fantasies

I don’t need a bed of roses
‘Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart
A gentle hand
Who’ll take me as I am

Baby, I need for you to know
Just exactly how I feel
Fiery passions come and go
I’d trade a million pretty words
For one touch that is real

I don’t need a bed of roses
‘Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart
A gentle hand
Who’ll take me as I am

From someone with a strong heart
A gentle hand
Who’ll take me as I am
