Take Me
03.Tiesto feat. Kyler England Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Waiting for the light to change from red
Thinking over all the things you said to me
You said to me
All your dreams are dying in the sun
Pretty soon there'll be nowhere left to run away
To run away

You packed your bags to leave by the morning
Destination far off and foreign
It's never or now
It's never or now

Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
'Cause I don't wanna be alone tonight
I don't wanna be alone tonight
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you

Memories of a life I leave behind
Take a souvenir to remind me of
The ones that love

Feel my heart it beats like a stopwatch
Running out of time with each tick tock
It's never or now
It's never or now

Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
'Cause I don't wanna be alone tonight
I don't wanna be alone tonight
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you

Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
'Cause I don't wanna be alone tonight
I don't wanna be alone tonight
Baby won't you take me




Baby won't you take me with you
With you

Overall Meaning

The song “Take Me” by Tiesto feat. Kyler England is a story of longing to be with someone you love, despite the odds and circumstances. The opening lines are about waiting for a sign, possibly a green light or an opportunity, to move forward and make a decision. The singer is also reflecting on the words spoken by the person they are hoping to be with. The following lines talk about the dreams that have been fading away and the fear of running out of time to achieve them. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who feels stuck and hopeless, except for the possibility of being with the one they love.


The verse “You packed your bags to leave by the morning, Destination far off and foreign” gives a glimpse of how physical distance is a challenge for the two characters. However, the chorus expresses the desire of the singer to be taken along, to not be left behind, to not be alone. The line “Memories of a life I leave behind, Take a souvenir to remind me of, The ones that love” further emphasizes how hard it is to distance oneself from the people and memories they cherish.


The song's message is relatable to anyone who has ever been in a long-distance or challenging relationship. It conveys the pain and the uncertainty of not being with the person you want to be with. Nonetheless, it also speaks of the hope and willingness to take a chance and go after what one wants.


Line by Line Meaning

Waiting for the light to change from red
Pausing at a traffic signal, pondering over the discussion you had with me


Thinking over all the things you said to me
Recalling our conversation in your mind with deep contemplation


You said to me
The words that you spoke to me retained in my thoughts


All your dreams are dying in the sun
Your aspirations are fading away without being fulfilled


Pretty soon there'll be nowhere left to run away
Escaping from reality will not be an option much longer


You packed your bags to leave by the morning
Preparing to depart at daybreak


Destination far off and foreign
Heading towards an unknown, distant location


It's never or now
There is no in-between; it's either immediate or never


Baby won't you take me
Requesting that you take me along with you


With you
Together with you, as one


Memories of a life I leave behind
Reminiscing about the past as I move forward


Take a souvenir to remind me of
Retaining a keepsake to aid in recollection


The ones that love
The ones who have affectionately cared for me


Feel my heart it beats like a stopwatch
My heartbeat feels like a ticking clock, running out of time


Running out of time with each tick tock
Time is running out with every tick of the clock


I don't wanna be alone tonight
I don't desire to be by myself this evening


Baby won't you take me
Urging you to include me on your journey


With you
Together, as a pair
