Take Me
Frank Sinatra with Tommy Dorsey and His Orchestra Lyrics

Tear a star from out the sky
If you remove something beautiful and bright, like a star from the dark night sky, it takes away the magic and wonder that surrounds us.

And the sky feels blue
The sky is a vast expanse of many colors, but no other color seems as mournful as blue when it loses it's star that adds to its beauty.

Tear a petal from a rose
A rose is a symbol of love, passion, and perfection. Each petal on the rose represents the beauty of life; destroying a petal will remove a piece of its beauty and grace.

And the rose weeps, too
Every little piece of happiness taken away breaks one's heart, just like the rose sheds a tear for every petal that falls.

Take your heart away from mine
If someone stops having feelings for you, it's possible that your heart will ache so badly that it may break into pieces.

And mine will surely break
Once your heart is entrenched somewhere, it becomes an integral part of your soul, and your heart breaking also means your spirit breaking.

My life is yours to make
When you're in love, it means that you're entrusting your life to that person, letting them fashion it and helping usher in the best version of yourself.

So please keep the spark awake
Love is a flame that needs nurturing, love in any relationship will fizzle out if one does not keep putting effort into making it work.

Would you take the wings from birds
If someone takes something that makes someone free, like the wings of a bird, they will deprive that soul of the ability to soar.

So that they can't fly?
A bird without its wings is a broken bird. It has no purpose, no direction, no life, and no joy; it's analogous to someone whose lover has left them.

Would you take the ocean's roar
The ocean's soundscape is a symphony of waves in perpetual motion, and someone who denies someone of that is stealing the ultimate sanctity of someone's senses.

And leave just a sigh?
In denying someone the broad vistas afforded by the ocean's roar, one restricts themself solely to the monotonous and tedious symphony of their own breathing.

All this, your heart won't let you do
It is impossible to harm the person you love because of the nature of love, which requires that we cherish those whom we hold dear.

This is what I beg of you
Please, I implore you to recognize that love is a powerful force that requires that we work towards it together, enhancing each other's lives and enriching our souls.

Don't take your love from me
The person is crying out to their beloved, imploring them to hold onto their love and to never let it go, as without love, life is meaningless and without purpose.

Don't take your love from me
The person is crying out to their beloved, imploring them to hold onto their love and to never let it go, as without love, life is meaningless and without purpose.
