Intro:
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Verse 1:
I was listening to the ocean
I saw a face in the sand, but when I picked it up
Then it vanished away from my hands, dah
I had a dream I was seven
Climbing my way in a tree, I saw a piece of heaven
Waiting in patience for me, dah
Pre-Chorus:
And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?
Nobody knows, nobody knows
I was dancing in the rain
I felt alive and I can't complain
Chorus:
But no, take me home
Take me home where I belong
I can't take it anymore
Verse 2:
I was painting a picture
The picture was a painting of you
And for a moment I thought you were here
But then again, it wasn't true, dah
And all this time I have been lying
Oh, lying in secret to myself
I've been putting sorrow on the farthest place on my shelf
La-di-da
Pre-Chorus:
And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?
Nobody knows, nobody knows
And I was dancing in the rain
I felt alive and I can't complain
Chorus:
But no, take me home
Take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
No, take me home
Take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
No, take me home
Take me home where I belong
I can't take it anymore
Bridge:
But I kept running for a soft place to fall (4x's)
Pre-Chorus:
And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?
Chorus:
But no, take me home
Take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
No, take me home
Take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
Outro:
No, take me home, home where I belong, no, no
No, take me home, home where I belong, oh, oh, oh
No, take me home, home where I belong, no, no
No, take me home, home where I belong
I can't take it anymore
