Take Me With You
Lauren Marsh Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Friday night
Doesn't seem to phase you
Cause we're out of sight
And I know it's just a matter of time
Before you say what's on your mind

Didn't want to be the one to mess you up
But I guess I've already done enough
We were just seventeen
We were both so mean

Here's to you
Sitting alone in the corner booth
Here's to you
Wild soul just sipping on truth
Wake me up when
It's cold and time to go home
Won't you
Take me with you when you go
Won't you
Take me with you when you go

Silent eyes
I can feel your heartbeat
From my seat
And you know that I can barely breathe
Until I hear what's on your mind

You can hate me, but I won't leave
Tell me off 'til you're at ease
And we were just seventeen
But you meant everything to me

Here's to you
Sitting alone in the corner booth
Here's to you
Wild soul just sipping on truth
Wake me up when
It's cold and time to go home
Won't you
Take me with you
Here's to you
Sitting alone in the corner booth
Here's to you
Wild soul just sipping on truth
Wake me up when
It's cold and time to go home
Won't you
Take me with you

All the windows are
Fogging up like
There's a storm coming
Giving us a warning
And I remember when
We were headed for the end
And oh you said

Here's to you
Sitting alone in the corner booth
Here's to you
Wild soul just sipping on truth
Wake me up when
Oh wake me up
Here's to you
I'll remember you when we're gone
Here's to you
We were never meant to hold on
Wake me up when
We're just too old to go home
Won't you
Take me with you
Here's to you
Sitting alone in the corner booth
Here's to you
Wild soul just sipping on truth
Wake me up when
It's cold and time to go home
Won't you
Take me with you when you go
Won't you
Take me with you when you go
Won't you
Take me with you when you go




Won't you
Take me with you when you go.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lauren Marsh's song "Take Me with You" depict a bittersweet and reflective narrative of a past relationship. The song explores themes of longing, nostalgia, and the desire to hold onto a significant connection even when it seems impossible. The opening lines, "Friday night, doesn't seem to phase you, cause we're out of sight," suggest that the singer and their love interest are disconnected from the rest of the world, lost in their own private bubble. However, the singer realizes that their time together is limited, and they anxiously wait for their love interest to express their true feelings.


The lyrics "We were just seventeen, we were both so mean" hint at a turbulent and emotionally charged relationship that took place during their teenage years. It was a time when they were both still figuring themselves out and grappling with their own insecurities. The phrase "wild soul just sipping on truth" signifies a free-spirited nature and a desire for authenticity.


The chorus "Here's to you, sitting alone in the corner booth, wild soul just sipping on truth, wake me up when it's cold and time to go home, won't you take me with you when you go" reflects a yearning to be a part of the love interest's journey, no matter where it may lead. The singer wants to be included in their love interest's life, to experience the highs and lows together, and to hold onto their connection even when everything else seems to be fading away.


As the song progresses, the lyrics reveal a sense of impending change and uncertainty. The line "All the windows are fogging up like there's a storm coming, giving us a warning" suggests that the relationship is reaching its breaking point. The singer recalls the love interest's words, "We were headed for the end," evoking a sense of inevitability and sadness.


Ultimately, "Take Me with You" is a poignant plea to be remembered and cherished, acknowledging the transient nature of relationships while still desiring to be a part of someone's life, even after they have moved on.


Line by Line Meaning

Friday night
The beginning of the weekend, a time when troubles can be forgotten


Doesn't seem to phase you
You don't appear affected by anything


Cause we're out of sight
Because we're hidden from everyone else


And I know it's just a matter of time
I understand that it won't be long


Before you say what's on your mind
Before you express your thoughts


Didn't want to be the one to mess you up
I didn't want to be the cause of your problems


But I guess I've already done enough
But it seems like I've already caused damage


We were just seventeen
We were young and naive


We were both so mean
We treated each other unkindly


Here's to you
A toast to your presence


Sitting alone in the corner booth
Quietly seated in a secluded spot


Wild soul just sipping on truth
An adventurous spirit seeking authenticity


Wake me up when
Let me know when


It's cold and time to go home
When the atmosphere becomes chilly and it's time to leave


Won't you
I implore you


Take me with you when you go
Bring me along when you depart


Silent eyes
Eyes that convey unspoken emotions


I can feel your heartbeat
I can sense your emotions


From my seat
Even though I'm not close to you


And you know that I can barely breathe
And you know I feel suffocated


Until I hear what's on your mind
Until I understand your thoughts


You can hate me, but I won't leave
You may despise me, but I won't abandon you


Tell me off 'til you're at ease
Vent your frustrations on me until you feel better


But you meant everything to me
However, you were incredibly important to me


All the windows are
Every opening is


Fogging up like
Becoming misty as


There's a storm coming
A sign of impending chaos


Giving us a warning
Alerting us to the dangers ahead


And I remember when
And I recall the time


We were headed for the end
We were moving towards the conclusion


And oh you said
And oh, you expressed


I'll remember you when we're gone
I'll keep you in my thoughts even after we leave


We were never meant to hold on
We were never destined to stay together


Wake me up when
Let me know when


We're just too old to go home
When we're too aged to return to where we started


Take me with you
Bring me along
