Take me somewhere nice
To some tired island in your heart called paradise
Though we wonder 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 Where we'll rendezvous out of the blue
And take a deep breath, just we do
And we'll be so far gone, the oars will roll on
And we will happily wave so long If we hook a train
And it tows us back down this open stream
We'll say, hello, oh, oh
Take us wherever you go Take me somewhere deep
'Cause I'm quite exhausted and I need to sleep
I'll climb the great divide
I'll wake up beside myself just to know I'm alive Every weight around
Pays me a visit, drags my eyelids down And they sting like growing pains
Iced in the pains of a 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 train
And it tows us back down this open stream
We'll say, hello,oh, oh
Take us wherever you go
