Superette

1. Superette
She was once a cashier  
Working down at Sully's South Side Superette. 
Number seven register, beside the magazines  
Was where they met.  
Three years out of high school, and a little boy at home, 
Livin' with her mom for now she said. 
Working down at Sully's was a temporary thing, she 
Always knew where she would rather be instead,  
Inside her head.  
Twenty years away from her,  
He stands in line and waits upon her smile.  
When she rings his groceries,  
He lingers in the small talk for awhile. 
In between the weather and the clever small clichés 
He thinks he may hear something more profound. 
And when he leaves he takes her vision home inside his head 
Where he can make believe his time has come around, 
And he has found 
Love in a superette. 

3. One Last Time
Death walked in one night without warning, 
Didn't have to tell me his name. 
Walked him to my table, offered him my whiskey 
Just the same. 
We talked about the world and all its pleasure; 
Talked about my life and all its pain. 
And through an open window 
I could hear the traffic whining  
In the rain. 
I wondered if he ever was mistaken, 
If there was something more that I could do. 
The moon broke through the clouds and I was shaken, 
I just wanted to be with you 
One last time. 
Sometimes you can see your life so clearly; 
The things that you regret come shining through. 
And even though I've loved this world so dearly, 
I would give it all to be with you  
One last time. 

5. Twilight Zone
Life  
Don’t seem worth living 
When you’re all alone  
In the twilight zone 
Of romance 
Where no love can find you 
And you feel like you’ve blown your last chance. 
You remember 
That December 
The dying ember 
Of your heart’s desperate last dance. 
Don’t  
Call me at midnight 
There’s no telephone  
In the twilight zone 
Of remorse. 
And don’t look for solace  
In places and faces 
Where love’s run its course. 
You will forget her 
In time memory fades 
But for now you must let her 
Walk away with your heart 
While the day slowly fades 
Into the shadows of twilight. 

7. I'm Not Your Fool
Well I was just a fool, 
To think you ever cared, 
You were using me, abusing me, everyday. 
I gave you my heart. 
You took it and tore me apart. 
But I loved you so,  
I kept running back for more. 
And every time you hurt me, you hurt me 
Worse than before. 
Why can’t I see you don’t love me 
And can never, never, never 
Give me what I need. 
You call out my name, 
And I run like a moth to the flame. 
But I’m not your fool.  
I can’t be here anymore. 
You hurt me for the last time, the last time 
You walked out my door. 
I ain’t got time for a woman 
Who don’t love me, and never  
Never did at all. 

9. Pointless Conversation
Another pointless conversation 
Nothing ventured, nothing gained; 
Just one more destination 
On a going nowhere train. 
Running from the pain. 
They met each other on the highway, 
The setting sun behind them shone. 
It just seemed easier, to become partners 
Pretending they were not alone, 
And way too far from home. 
Lay me in a sunlit garden, 
Let me sleep away the fear. 
You ask me if I’m sad, 
She was all I had 
I watched her slowly disappear. 
They headed East from Colorado 
Blinded by the rising sun. 
A thousand miles to go, before they came around 
To where the journey had begun. 
They weren’t fooling anyone. 

11. When You Go
When you go, / I won’t miss you at all 
‘Cause I know / You’ll be here in the fall 
Of the snow / And in songs 
From a long time ago. 
Far away, / You’ll be humming a tune 
You can’t play / To a bright orange moon 
On the bay; / you’ll remember the words 
Day by day. 
And you’ll be free / To find whatever promise  
That could be / Where other shores pretend to meet  
Another sea, /And other faces keep reminding you of me. 
You will hear / Voices whisper softly in your ear 
That I’m near. 
When you go, / It won’t matter to me 
‘Cause you grow / Like the flowers I see 
Through the snow. / And I won’t shed a tear 
When you go. 

2. Suspicion
You promised me the open sky 
If I would be the one who loved you. 
Saw you with another guy 
Took the light from the stars above you. 
He was just a boy from high school you hardly even knew 
At least that’s what you told me, and I took it as the truth. 
The worst thing you can do to love is wonder if it’s true, 
That’s my suspicion. 
On the street the other day 
Saw you with a girl she was a dancer. 
Who she was you wouldn’t say, 
But I already knew the answer. 
Now every time I see you talk with someone new 
I just go crazy thinking they’re in love with you. 
Feel like I’m insane, what am I gonna do 
With my suspicion? 
Love is really sweet they say, 
Nothing that you can really hold onto. 
You’re gonna watch it slip away, 
Even if you don’t want to. 
A wiff of something nameless you can’t quite compehend, 
The way she turns away before the conversation ends. 
How can we be lovers, we can’t connect as friends 
Without suspicion? 

4. Bitter Teardrops
Gotta get outta here, 
No one's coming to your rescue. 
Jesus made a deal 
With the devil sent to test you. 
Churches filled to overflowing, 
Prayers are rising to the sun. 
Can you hear them? 
Or am I the only one 
Who can't believe you 
Would sacrifice your precious sons? 
Gotta get outta here, 
No one's coming to redeem us. 
We're burning bridges now, 
Ocean's widening between us. 
Flags are flying from the mountains, 
Bombs are flying from the sky 
Like bitter teardrops. 
And people wonder why 
We cannot save them, 
We can only hear them cry. 

6. Another Heartache Country Song
There was a time, he thought he was fine 
And in love with the world all around. 
She was the reason he walked with his feet 
Never touching the ground. 
She liked to say that she loved him. 
He liked to think it was so 
He was happy, it seems 
Like a long time ago 
There came a day, she tried to say 
She felt angry, hurt and alone. 
He tried to help her but every word pulled her 
Under, like a stone, 
She never said she was leaving. 
She never told him good-bye. 
Now he’s out there just waiting, 
Wondering why. 
He should’a known, true love won’t grow 
In a garden left too long. 
All it’ll give you is just another 
Heartache country song. 
She always said that she loved him. 
He always knew it was so. 

8. Sweet Dreams
It isn’t that she cares to know how anybody feels 
They never even call her on the phone. 
She sits in her apartment with her Dago Mountain Red, 
Says she’s rather face the truth alone. 
Sweet dreams and sorrow 
Take her anywhere she has to go. 
She lives in tomorrow, 
Today is just too difficult to know. 
All her friends are married now, their babies have all grown, 
A few have even died or moved away. 
It doesn’t really matter if they come or if they go, 
They never really knew her anyway. 
Sweet dreams and sorrow 
Color all the music that she hears. 
She’d beg, steal or borrow 
To find her way back through the years. 
Another year has come and gone, another lonely night, 
She picks her rumpled housecoat off the floor, 
There’s still another bottle waiting, still another dream, 
If she can only make it out the door. 
Sweet dreams and sorrow 
Have taken her as far as she can go. 
There’ll be no tomorrow… 

10. Love Is A Liar
Be careful what you ask for when you’re lonely. 
You just might get the thing that you desire. 
People come, people go 
And you can never really know 
Who’ll pull you down, and who will take you higher. 
Love is a liar. 
A woman is a wonderful invention 
Born in hell and tempered in the fire. 
She’ll give you everything you need, 
Cut your heart and watch you bleed 
And leave you in a puddle of desire. 
Love is a liar. 
Stand on the corner 
Heed what they say: 
She will steal your heart and throw your love away 
Like child’s play. 
But you’ll still want her anyway. 
Be careful how you spend your hard earned money. 
And stay away from women who require 
First your body, they your soul, 
You’ll give up every last control 
And beg for mercy while she lights the fire. 
Love is a liar. 

12. Your Eyes
Your eyes 
Explore his trembling heart 
And see 
Where the Universe began 
And he 
Takes your hand 
And holds your heart 
With his mind 
And in your eyes 
He sees the universe 
Rewind. 

Mistaken

1. Talk To Me
We were contented 
To go on living in this masquerade. 
Love was invented 
To pull away the veil from the mistakes we’ve made. 
You were a vision 
Sent from somewhere deep inside my fevered brain. 
When love came slowly into view 
It was all I could do just to make myself know it was you. 
Talk to me. 
Tell me all the wonders that you see. 
Time is revealing 
Lessons that we never thought we’d need to know. 
Love is for healing 
What the heart encounters on its lonely road. 
You were the answer 
To every prayer I threw into the empty sky. 
Like a bird floating on the wind, 
You were there, and the end seemed a wonderful place to begin. 
Talk to me. 
Tell me all the wonders we will see 
When the world is made all fresh and new 
And I will be in love with you again. 
Won’t you please talk to me. 
Talk to me. 

3. Midnight Angel
She was just a midnight angel on the road to self-destruction  
and disgrace, 
She wore skin-tight leather Levis and a lot of black  
Mascara on her face, 
She came upon him unawares, he didn't have a chance, 
Put him on a roller coaster, taught him how to dance 
Before he knew what happened he was caught up  
in a rip tide romance. 
They drove all the way to Tucson Arizona in a stolen Chevrolet. 
It was all that he could to stay awake; she kept him  
running night and day. 
Robbed a grocery store in Mobile; a bank in Tennessee, 
He was just the lookout, but he saw what he could see, 
It scared him just a little, but it also made him feel like he was free. 
Midnight angel, midnight angel, rescue me 
In a bar outside El Paso she was caught between a pistol  
and a knife 
When the smoke cleared they were running, 
and he knew that she had taken someone’s life. 
They ran into a roadblock on the road to Mexico, 
She got out a window, but he was much too slow, 
Now he’s down in Huntsville on the lookout for an  
angel on death row. 
Now all you Barca-Lounge banditos,  
all you ageing hippie rock star wannabes, 
Take a lesson from this story, or the fantasy will drive  
you to your knees. 
You can see it in the movies; you can watch it on TV, 
You can even make believe that it was you they came to see, 
But if you ever run across another midnight angel, let her be. 
Midnight angel, midnight angel, set me free. 

5. Mistaken
He loved to take her photograph; 
Made him smile to see her laugh. 
He knew his love was True. 
His friends all said that she was wrong, 
Much too young and much too strong 
To feel the same way too. 
He knew they were mistaken; 
She spoke a different truth. 
She was the answer 
To everything he never learned in school. 
It was easy to mistake her for a dancer, 
And easier to take him for a fool. 
They broke the rules, broke some hearts, 
Slept together, slept apart, 
It was a rocky ride. 
Then one day she had enough, 
Looked around and saw that there 
Was nothing left inside. 
How could he be mistaken? 
How could love be so cruel? 
There was no dancer 
And no exception to the rule: 
When you look to your illusions for the answer, 
It’s easy to be taken for a fool. 

7. Elvis' Underpants
Winging on down to Cleveland  
Nothin' on my mind,  
Coming down for the wedding vows  
Of a friend of mine.  
But that'll only take an hour or two,  
Leaves a whole lotta time to kill.  
Don't wanna be hanging 'round no hotel  
Running up a porn channel bill.  
I hear they got a rock 'n roll museum here,  
And I'll probably only get one chance  
To see the Big Bopper's pink pajamas,  
And Elvis's underpants.  
Elvis, oh Elvis, you left us a great legacy.  
Cleveland, oh Cleveland,  
You build a great shrine to the King's BVDs.  
Now, Drew Cary he says that Cleveland rocks,  
And them people really know how to dance.  
But nothin ' can compare to the feelin' you get  
When you see Elvis's underpants.  
Elvis, oh Elvis, you left us a great legacy.  
Cleveland, oh Cleveland,  you saved the King's undies for posterity.  
Now if you ever find yourself in Cleveland,  
And you’re lookin’ for the sights to see,  
Get yourself right over to the Erie shore  
And that steel and glass menagerie.  
Just ask for directions to the Hall of Fame,  
And no matter what your circumstance,  
You’ll revel in the power and the glory of  
Elvis’s underpants.  

9. Thin Air
I tried to tell you it was over,  
You were underneath a different star.  
You looked so helpless, like the child  
That you are.  
You said we'd always be together,  
You said that love was all we need.  
The more you cried, the more I struggled to be free.  
Did you even see me?  
Did you know that I was there?  
Or were you building castles in thin air?  
It wasn't me who made you angry.  
It wasn't love you thought you found.  
You heard a song and felt a memory  
Come around.  
The prince and princess there were dancing;  
The moonlight fell through silver air.  
You sat there watching in the darkness of a prayer.  
Did you even see me?  
Did you know that I was there?  
You were building castles in thin air  

11. Broken Promises
Seems like only yesterday  
In a world so young, so far away,  
You and I made promises.  
It was so much sweeter then,  
Making love, then making love again;  
It was all a dream.  
Now I'm trying to remember  
What might be better to forget.  
Was it me or you  
Broke the dream in two?  
And yet, I bet  
If we had it all again  
We'd just spend it trying to pretend  
It was just a game.  
Nothing special, nothing real,  
No one ever asking what's the deal  
With these broken promises.  
Now I'm trying to remember  
What might be better to forget.  
I still see you there  
In the corner chair...  
It's true, It's you...  
Made it so much sweeter then,  
Making love, then making love again;  
It was all a dream.  

2. Just Another Jim
Jimmy was a lonely boy 
'Til he met Joleen. 
Taller by an inch and twice as pretty 
As any girl he'd ever seen, 
Stole his heart 
And took him on a bus down to the city. 
They lived above a liquor store, 
It was very nice. 
He drove a cab and she became a model. 
He came home from work one day, 
She was gone, 
He went downstairs and climbed inside a bottle. 
She was everything to him; 
He was just another Jim. 
He saw her on the street one day, 
Tried to say hello, 
Her Gucci bag and cell phone made him stammer. 
He watched her climb into a cab, 
Pull away, 
Grabbed his heart and threw it in the slammer. 
She was everything to him; 
He was just another Jim. 
Jimmy's still a lonely boy 
Can't forget Joleen 
Thirty years have passed, and he's still single. 
He sits there by the phone and thinks 
One day soon 
He'll pick it up and give that girl a jingle. 
She was everything to him; 
He was just another Jim. 

4. Believer
If ever I saw a believer, I saw one in you. 
I couldn't wait 'til I had you alone in my room. 
You had a vision of Heaven that I couldn't see. 
Looking for something to say 
To keep me from slipping away 
At the first light of day. 
You told me you prayed for a lover that you could believe. 
You took off your dress by the window, and I couldn't breathe. 
And all my resistance was lost in the fall of your hair. 
Wearing your heart on your sleeve, 
Finding the courage to free 
A believer in me. 

6. Replaceable
I saw you standing on a ticket line, 
Thought you came to hear me play. 
You didn’t even know the name of the band; 
It was just another way to waste a day. 
And in the end it was inevitable, 
I fell in love with you 
Made me feel insatiable, 
Replaceable, and blue. 
Another item on the social page 
For all our social climber friends. 
Funny how we fall from grace so easy. 
Funny how the story ends. 
Not with a whimper, or even a bang, 
You just light another cigarette. 
You still feel insatiable, 
You tell yourself you have no regrets. 
You may have been replaceable, 
But you’re impossible to forget. 

8. Gospel
If you want absolution  
Got to rely on the Lord.  
It don't take much surrender,  
Just all that you can afford.  
Take your hands out of your pockets.  
Pick your dreams up off the floor.  
You can dance around with obvious abandon  
‘Cause that preacher he don’t live here any more.  
If you listen to Jesus,  
You won't have to reap what you sow.  
If you listen to Elvis,  
It’s all pay as you go.  
Take your mind out of the gutter,  
Take your love up on the roof.  
Take the time to read between the lines of reason  
And believe that in your heart you know the truth.  
Put your money on the horses,  
Take a ride to Timbuctu,  
Let the rain fall down and wash away the feeling  
That you can’t be saved no matter what you do.  
No one gets into Heaven  
Until we all get there too.  
So take care of your brother.  
It’s the least you can do.  

10. Already Dead
Went to the Ph.D. doctor  
Said please examine my head  
He gave me his learned opinion  
I was already dead.  
Told him I'd pray for a lifetime  
Bleed 'til the heavens turned red  
But God saves His gifts for the living  
And I was already dead.  
That's what I said.  
Life was once a feeling  
Of pleasure and pain.  
Man can burn in the dessert sun  
And drown in the jungle rain.  
Don't need no second opinion,  
No need to cower in dread.  
I got no need to fear dying,  
‘Cause I’m already dead.  
You heard what I said.  
Lazarus and Jesus  
The story is told  
Both were dead and walked again  
Just thirty-three years old.  
A blind man having a vision,  
A dancer chained to a bed;  
Where can they find absolution,  
When they’re already dead?  
You heard what I said.  
You're already dead.  

12. Run To You
I would never say goodbye  
I wouldn't leave you, couldn't leave you if I tried  
'Cause I know yours was the only love that's true  
And I run to you.  
Mountains may crumble, rivers run dry,  
There's no ocean, like the ocean of tears  
I would cry if I thought that we were through  
And I could not run to you.  
It's not easy, when you're all alone  
To find a reason to carry on.  
You keep on searching deep inside yourself  
For what went wrong.  
I searched a lifetime, turned every stone,  
I've been searching,  
I've been searchin' for some way to come home,  
Now with the shadows turning blue  
I run to you.  

Nothing Changes

1. Blind Spot
Nobody can see me
I’m invisible.
I disappear at will.
Careful what you say about me
When I’m not around, I could be listening.
Just when you think the coast is clear,
My spies are everywhere.
I’m standing in the blind spot
Of your periphery.
Nobody knows my game.
Just beyond your point of view
Is where I stake my firm position.
And though I disappear from view,
I’m still watching you.
I was always on your side; never tried to hide
How I felt about you
Were looking for a way       
To run from all those feelings locked inside you.
You got to find the blind spot 
In your adversity.
Just look around, you’ll see.
People tend to pass you by,
They only see what they believe in.
When you can vanish in thin air,
You’ll find me standing there.
Standing in your blind spot…

3. Closed For Renovations
He lived alone on the outskirts of some little town,
Playing his music each evening with no one around.
Life was passing him by
Like a movie that played every night across the sky
Like a dream, from the past
That he knew wouldn’t last.
Three long years had gone by since he left his world behind;
Three long years but it seemed like it wasn’t that much time.
He could still hear her cry
On the day that they closed up their lives and said goodbye
To the dream, and the past
And the love that didn’t last.
This heart is closed for renovations.
There is no statute of limitations for the pain
Left after love’s grand expectations
Crumble like sand castles falling in the rain.
This heart is closed for renovations.
There is no sign in the window that any, anyone is there
Waiting for love’s sweet restoration
Until the last rays of sunlight disappear.

5. Blame It On Me
You can find me lately, living down
Below the radar in a one cop town;
Things are better since I’m not around.
You can blame it on me.
I’m in a furnished room, and it’s okay,
Got a letter here just yesterday.
Seems the folks don’t have that much to say.
They just blame it on me.
You always knew what I was thinking,
But never knew quite what to say.
We tried to stop our boat from sinking,
But stormy weather won the day.
Now don’t you worry baby, it’s alright,
We tried our damnedest, but we lost the fight.
I think about you almost every night.
You can blame it on me. 
Well you can blame it,
No need to explain it, baby,
You can blame it on me.

7. Upstairs Room
Big man Bruce, gotta lotta juice
He choose the bands who can play in the upstairs room.
People come with the tapes and the fine CD, yeah,
They say hey Bruce, you got to listen to me, yeah yeah, yeah.
The music play, only he can say
If it sounds good enough for the upstairs room.
If the band don't sing just like the radio, now,
The big man he say, you got to go, now.
It’s not fair, 
But we don’t care, no
The bottom rung doesn’t leave very far to fall.
We don’t feel sad, 
When we sing real bad, no
‘Cause we can always play down at the Legion Hall.
You know some day, you gonna hear us play, hey
We gonna headline for the weekend in the upstairs room.
‘Cuz we know how to make him like our harmony, yeah
We go out and we buy him a big screen TV, yeah yeah, yeah.
It’s not fair, but we don’t care.
The bottom rung doesn’t leave very far to fall.
We don’t feel sad, 
When we sing real bad, now,
‘Cause we can always play down at the Legion Hall.

9. Love Somebody
If you love somebody, you got to make it real.
Love somebody honey, tell them how you feel.
You want to be somebody’s baby,
Got to tell them everything you’ve spent your whole life, honey 
Trying to conceal.
Nobody will ever love you; nobody can find your heart
If you keep it hidden baby; you got secrets to reveal.
You want someone to love you, got to take it slow.
You need someone’s protection from the fires down below.
Someone just like you is waiting,
Someone who can fill the hole you feel inside you honey,
‘Til it’s time to go.
Breaks your heart when you discover the only way that you can learn
How to love another, baby, is to let them go.
The only thing you’ve ever wanted,
The only peace you’ve ever known
Is to lie there in the dark and feel a beating heart beside you.
It’s the only time you didn’t feel alone.
So you keep on searching honey, looking all around.
Holding on for dear life to the heartache that you’ve found.
It’s time to face the hard decisions,
Seems you’ve always known that letting go ain’t easy honey.
The truth won’t let you down.
All you got to do is love him; all you got to say is yes,
He won’t ever leave you honey; you love somebody now. 
Love somebody now…

11. Broken Promises
Seems like only yesterday  
In a world so young, so far away,  
You and I made promises.  
It was so much sweeter then,  
Making love, then making love again;  
It was all a dream.  
Now I'm trying to remember  
What might be better to forget.  
Was it me or you  
Broke the dream in two?  
And yet, I bet  
If we had it all again  
We'd just spend it trying to pretend  
It was just a game.  
Nothing special, nothing real,  
No one ever asking what's the deal  
With these broken promises.  
Now I'm trying to remember  
What might be better to forget.  
I still see you there  
In the corner chair...  
It's true, It's you...  
Made it so much sweeter then,  
Making love, then making love again;  
It was all a dream.  

2. Absence Of Whiskey
In the absence of whiskey, 
The feeling grows stronger today
That the price of admission to heaven
Can be hell to pay.
And for every condition you make
When you kneel down to pray
Comes an awful desire to drink
All your troubles away.
So step up there lightly, don’t pay it no mind;
No matter what you do or say,
Everything you’ve ever loved will be taken away.
So turn off your TV
Them porn channels poison your mind.
You know women and whiskey
They always will treat you unkind.
The road it gets narrow
The longer you stay,
The thorns on the side more severe.
Every transgression just makes this life harder to bear.
Now all that you cherish
Just leave by the side of the road.
‘Cause the absence of whiskey is all
You can take when you go.

4. Do Nothin’ ‘Til You Hear From Me
(Duke Ellington and Bob Russell)
Do nothin’ ‘til you hear from me,
Pay no attention to what’s said.
Why people tear the seams of anyone’s dreams
Is over my head.
Do nothin’ ‘til you hear from me,
At least consider our romance.
If you should take the word of others you’ve heard,
I haven’t a chance.
Though I’ve been seen 
With someone new
Does that mean
I’ve been untrue?
When we’re apart
The words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you.
A kiss may cloud my memory,
And other arms may hold a thrill.
But please do nothin’ ‘till you hear it from me.
And you never will.

6. Nothing Changes
You know I want you baby
Every time I see 
You walk into a room 
I want to walk right up to you to you, say, “be mine.”
But you know I can’t ‘cuz you take my breath away.
Hey, I wanna be the one you love, 
I can see myself with you
No matter if it hasta look uncool to society; 
Tell me all about impropriety.
Changes come when you can feel that
You can feel that nothing changes.
Changes come when you can feel that
You can feel that nothing changes.
When love arrived, my heart was shattered.
I thought I was the only one.
Then it was gone, none of it mattered;
It ended as it had begun.
Remembering when it was over, and over,
Again and again, over and over.
(Remembering when)
Again and again, over and over.
(Again and again)
Again and again, over and over.
You know that I could be
Someone you might love if only you could see
The man I really am instead of try to be, in adversity
Come with me, make a new beginning.
Here and now is all we got,
We can take it as it is and maybe it’ll be
Better than it was before we found each other.
Let me come to you and let me be your lover.
Every time I see your face,
Every time I hear your voice,
You’re coming from a different place
You’re dancing with the girls and boys.
I realize none of it mattered;
(Again and again)
It just comes back around again. 
Every time I see your face, baby
Every time I hear your voice, baby
You’re coming from a different place, baby
You’re dancing with the girls and boys, baby.

8. Come Rain Or Come Shine
(Johnny Mercer and Harold Arlen)
I’m gonna love you like nobody’s loved you
Come rain or come shine.
High as a mountain, deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
You knew when you met me,
It was just one of those things
But don’t ever bet me
‘Cause I’m gonna be true if you let me.
You’re gonna love me like nobody’s loved me
Come rain or come shine.
Happy together, unhappy together
But won’t it be fine
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We’re in or we’re out of the money
But I’m gonna love you
Rain or shine.

10. Take Me Away
WI saw you tonight for the first time.
Your loveliness fell from the stars.
You were everything I ever dreamed of,
Standing right before my heart.
Now in the still of the night
I pray with all my might 
That love will take me away.
Take me, take me, 
(Please, please, please won’t you please…)
Away, away, away, 
Take me away, take me away
To a place and time I’ve never been before
Where I’ll find the happiness I’ve waited for.
Too many years have gone by
And I never knew why
I was lonely, now I
Know that love will take me.
Take me, take me, 
(Please, please, please won’t you please…)
Away, away, away, 
Take me away, take me away.
Let me feel the warmth in every sunny day.
Let me hear the truth in every word you say.
We know it’s true, you know it too
Love can be sharing a moment together.
Sometimes it seems, following dreams
Takes us away to the edge of forever.
We know it’s true, you know it too
Love can be sharing a lifetime together.
Sometimes it seems, following dreams
Takes us away to the end of time.
