Take Love
Accomplice Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you come home with me tonight
You'll smell like roses, you'll look so right

You wanna make love
You wanna take love
You better give some love to me

You're getting' around
Quit bringin' me down
You're not the who I thought you'd be

And when I hit the road
You'll be so far away from me
And when you're movin' on
You'll never know just where I'll be

Where's your new lover? Has he done you wrong?
It's one then another, they just can't last that long

You wanna make love
You wanna take love
You better give some love to me

You're getting' around
Quit bringin' me down
You're not the who I thought you'd be

And when I hit the road
You'll be so far away from me
And when you're movin' on
You'll never know just where I'll be





Best not come knockin' upon my door
If you come 'round here, won't find me no more
