Take Me There
DJ OPTICAL the M.N.B Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I opened up a door
But you were lying on the floor
So take me out or take me in, but it's too late now to begin
The same game the same way

My mind is washed ashore
And you're so easy to adore
But now I made the table spin, you cannot be my everything
If you play your games

I thought we were the one thing, we know something was there
Got more than some lovin' for you right here to share
But if I got to run up after you it isn't fair
Cos if you really wanted, you would take me there

Come take me there
Cos if you really wanted, you would take me

You know I got my pride
And this ain't feelin' right
It's not like you're not texting back, but if there's more, just show me that
You like me too

I'd rather you push me to the side to make it clear I
Shouldn't need to get my hopes and expectations high
So long we're stuck in the third act and I sure won't break my back
Just to please you, you, you, you

Yeah, we could be that one thing, we know something is there
Got more than some lovin' for you right here to share
But if I got to run up after you it isn't fair
If you really want me, you will take me there

Come take me there
Cos if you really wanted, you would take me

So time will tell like time has told, you do me well
Shook me up, got me on lock, you got me under your spell
But I'm impatient, I'm tired of waiting and if it's mutual, you take it
And if not, you will kill this fantasy of mine, thinking we'd make it

Oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh




Come take me there
Cos if you really wanted, you would take me there
