Take Me Back
Jems Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm alive, I don't wanna go
I'm alive, I'm alive, I don't wanna go home
I'm alive, I don't wanna go
I'm alive, I'm alive, I don't wanna go home

Is this a dream?
Stay close to me
Baby, don't let go, don't let go of me

And maybe you're gonna be the one to take me
Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me home
Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me

Maybe you're gonna be the one
Maybe you're gonna be the one
Maybe you're gonna be the one
Maybe you're gonna be the one

Maybe you're gonna be the one
To take me (home, home)
Maybe you're gonna be the one
To take me (home, home)
Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me home

Let me be still
I'm happy watching the world spin 'round me
This can't be real
Heaven is here with your arms around me

Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me
Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me home
Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me
Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me home

Home, home
Maybe you're gonna be the one
To take me (home, home)
Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me home

(Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me)
(Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me)
(Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me)





Maybe you're gonna be the one to take me home
