Take Me Home
Jess Glynne/Musicfire.in Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wrapped up, so consumed by
All this hurt
If you ask me, don't
Know where to start

Anger, love, confusion
Roads that go nowhere
I know there's somewhere better

'Cause you always take me there

Came to you with a broken faith
Gave me more than a hand to hold
Caught before I hit the ground
Tell me I'm safe, you've got me now

Would you take the wheel
If I lose control?
If I'm lying here
Will you take me home?

Could you take care
Of a broken soul?
Will you hold me now?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?

Hold the gun to my head
Count one, two, three
And if it helps me walk away then it's
What I need

And every minute gets easier
The more you talk to me
You rationalize my darkest thoughts
Yeah, you set them free

Came to you with a broken faith
Gave me more than a hand to hold
Caught before I hit the ground
Tell me I'm safe, you've got me now

Would you take the wheel
If I lose control?
If I'm lying here
Will you take me home?

Could you take care
Of a broken soul?
Oh, will you hold me now?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?

You say space will make it better
And time will make it heal
I won't be lost forever
And soon I wouldn't feel
Like I'm haunted, whoa falling

You say space will make it better
And time will make it heal
I won't be lost forever
And soon I wouldn't feel
Like I'm haunted, whoa falling

You say space will make it better
And time will make it heal
I won't be lost forever
And soon I wouldn't feel
Like I'm haunted, whoa falling

Would you take the wheel
If I lose control?
If I'm lying here
Will you take me home?

Could you take care
Of a broken soul?
Oh, will you hold me now?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?
Home

Oh, will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?

Overall Meaning

The song "Take Me Home" by Jess Glynne is an emotional plea to a lover to provide comfort and support to the singer during difficult times. The lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability and insecurity as the singer describes feeling consumed by hurt and confusion. The imagery of roads that go nowhere suggests a feeling of being lost and directionless, which is compounded by the reference to a broken faith. However, the singer finds solace in their partner, who not only offers a hand to hold but also catches them before they hit the ground. This person is a source of safety and security, and the singer feels that they can lose control and still be taken care of.

The chorus of the song is particularly powerful, as the singer asks their partner if they would take the wheel if they lose control and if they would take care of a broken soul. This suggests a deep level of trust and dependence on the part of the singer, who is essentially asking if their partner will be there for them no matter what. The repetition of the line "will you take me home" at the end of each chorus emphasizes the need for a place of safety and comfort.

The song overall is a touching expression of vulnerability and the need for love and support during difficult times. It demonstrates how a loving partner can provide a sense of security and help us navigate the ups and downs of life.
