Take Me Home
Bobby Bazini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I take your hand and ask you to dance
and say ‘‘Don’t worry if I’m leavin’ soon’’
‘Cause girl you take me home,
Every time girl you take me home
I left home on a sad sad Sunday
I blew you a kiss and whispered I’ll miss you too
And it breaks my heart to leave you alone
‘Cause girl you take me home
Every time girl you take me home
‘Cause girl you take me home
Every time girl you take me home
I’m headed out west with a tune in my heart
Got rhymes in my blood and whiskey in my head
I ain’t got no money but I’ve got love
And a whole bunch of kisses I’ve got to spare
Girl they take me home
Every time ‘Cause girl you take me home
Girl you take me home
Every time girl you take me home
I’ll be home, I’ll be home, I’ll be home, I’ll be home with you
I’ll be home in a little while
I’ll be home, I’ll be home, I’ll be home, I’ll be home with you
I’ll be home in a little while
‘Cause girl you take me home
Every time girl you take me home
Girl you take me home
