Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Mmm, I was listenin' 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

Climbin' my way in a tree

I saw a piece of heaven

Waitin' in patience for me, dah

[PreChorus]

And I was runnin' far away, would I run off the world someday?

Nobody knows, nobody knows

And I was dancin' 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 lyin'

Oh, lyin' in secret to myself

I've been putting sorrow on the farthest place

On my shelf, la-di-da

[PreChorus]

And I was runnin' far away, would I run off the world someday?

Nobody knows, nobody knows

And I was dancin' 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 runnin' for a soft place to fall

And I kept runnin' for a soft place to fall

And I kept runnin' for a soft place to fall

And I kept runnin' for a soft place to fall

[PreChorus]

And I was runnin' 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
