Take Me Somewhere Nice

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

When we'll rendevouz out of the blue

And take a deep breath, just we two

And we'll be so far gone, the oars will row on

And we will happily wave so long

If we hook a dream

And it tows us back down this older street

We'll say hello, oh, oh

Take us wherever you go

Take me somewhere deep

Because I'm quite exhausted and I need to sleep

Or climb the great divide, I wake up beside myself just to know I'm alive

Every weight around pays me a visit and drags my islands down

And they sting like growing pains

Iced in the veins of the 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 older street

We'll say hello, oh, oh

Take us wherever you go
