Take on Me
A One Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Talking away
I don't know what
I'm to say I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, OK

Take on me (Take on me)
Take me on (Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

So needless to say
Odds and ends
But I'll be stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is OK
Say after me
Almost better to be safe than sorry

Take on me (Take on me)
Take me on (Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

Oh, things that you say
Is it live or
Just to play my worries away
You're all the things I've got to remember
You're shying away
I'll be coming for you anyway

Take on me (Take on me)
Take me on (Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

Take on me (Take on me)
Take me on (Take on me)




I'll be gone (Take on me)
In a day or two (Take on me)

A1 - Take On Me

Talking away
I don't know what
I'm to say I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shine away
I'll be coming for your love OK

Take on me, (take on me)
Take me on, (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

So needless to say
At odds and ends
But I´ll be stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is OK.
Say it after me
It's so much better to be safe than sorry

Take on me, (take on me)
Take me on, (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

Oh, things that you say
Yeah is it life or just a play
My worries away
You're all the things I've got to remember
You shine away
I'll be coming for you anyway

Take on me, (take on me)
Take me on, (take on me)
I'll be gone in a day or two

Love this version. Heard it 1st in 2000 being blasted out in night club. Blown away with overall sound beat high note fancy bits. everything

@pyronix

I don't know why but at least once a year I would watch this video because it just makes me so happy. I'm not particularly an A1 fan but I just really like this cover so much, and I just love this MV a lot. Maybe I have bad taste? I dunno... but this whole thing is just so comforting. It brings me back to the good old days of the early 2000s. I wish they'd remake this video but with the same concept. I love all those little things kids these days would probably not even be aware of like the netscape browser lol.

@walidsultan8711

@MsMakira

I remember I was 5 years old I think and we used to play their songs every morning in the living room. Best times, 90's music!!
