Take Me Back
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I thought I saw you from a distance
I swore I'd found you once again
Touched on that feelin' for an instant
Could not recall just where or when
Oh, no
Some desert island off Morocco
We had a love so hard to find
Oh, so full of life, so free and easy
Another place, another time, oh!
Take me back
I wanna be there with you
It happened just like that, yeah!
Slip in a dream or two
Come on, take me back
Oh, deja vu
One soul, one mind
One light that shines
One love so fine
Oh, come on and take me back
Some call it fate, some superstition
Some call it luck, it's all the same
Oh, just one of the mysteries of creation
Somethin' you feel but can't explain, oh!
Take me back
I wanna be there with you
It happens just like that, baby
I've fallen deep into
Oh!
(Guitar Solo)
Oh girl, do it, come on
Oh do it, take me there
Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Come on, take me back, baby
'Cuz I swear I've been there with you
It happened just like that, wow!
Send me a dream or two
Oh, come on, take me back
Oh, deja vu
