Take Me Away
Freaky Friday Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah.. Yeah..

Get up. Get out.
Move on, move on. There's no doubt.
I'm all wrong. You're right.
It's all the same with you.
I'm too thin, too fat.
You ask why.
So why, so why, so why, so why?

On and on and on and on.
On and on and on and on.

Don't wanna grow up.
I wanna get out.
Hey, take me away.
I wanna shout out.
Take me away, away, away, away.
Away...

Round and round, here we go again.
Same old start, same old end.
Turn my head, I turn back again.
Same old stuff never ends.
Do this, do that. Can't deal, can't deal with that.
I tune in, tune out. I've heard it all before.
Hello, goodbye. Never askin' me why.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.

On and on and on and on.
On and on and on and on.

Don't wanna grow up.
I wanna get out.
Hey, take me away.
I wanna shout out.
Take me away, away, away, away.
Away...

(Guitar solo)

Don't wanna grow up.
I wanna get out.
Hey, take me away.
I wanna shout out.
Take me away, away, away, away.
Away...

Don't wanna grow up.
I wanna get out.
Hey, take me away.
I wanna shout out.
Take me away, away, away, away.
Away...

Round and round, here we go again.
Same old story, the same old end.




Turn my head, I turn back again.
Same old stuff never ends.

TAKE ME AWAY EN ESPAÑOL

Letra de la canción

Esta ves lo que quiero eres tu 
No hay nadie más 
Que pueda ocupar tu lugar 
Esta vez me quemaste con tus ojos 
Ves pasar todas las mentiras 
Lo llevas todo lejos 
Lo he visto todo 
Y nunca es suficiente 
Eso sigue dejándome necesitándote 

Llévame lejos 
Llévame lejos 
No tengo nada más que decir 
Tan sólo llévame lejos 

Trato de hacer mi camino hacia ti 
Pero en momentos me siento tan perdido 
No se que más puedo hacer
Lo he visto todo 
Y nunca es suficiente 
Eso sigue dejándome necesitándote 

Llévame lejos 
Llévame lejos 
No tengo nada más que decir 
Tan sólo llévame lejos
No pierdas el interés en mí todavía 
No te olvides de quién soy yo 
Yo se que todavía no estoy allí 
Pero no me dejes 
Estar aquí sólo 

Esta ves lo que quiero eres tu 
No hay nadie más 
Que pueda ocupar tu lugar 
Lo he visto todo y nunca es suficiente 
Eso sigue dejándome necesitándote 

Llévame lejos 
Llévame lejos 
No tengo nada más que decir 
Tan sólo llévame lejos 

Llévame lejos 
Llévame lejos 
No tengo nada más que decir 
Tan sólo llévame lejos.
