Take Me
RьFьS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh

Take me
Away across the ocean
Out in the horizon the night is falling

Outside in the golden air
Washed out and no one's there
She said I'll meet you there
Sometime

Sunset in the breeze
Drifting into me
Her love will make it right
This time

So take me
Away across the ocean
Out in the horizon the night is falling

Take me
Away across the ocean
Out in the horizon the night is falling

Take me
Away across the ocean
Out in the horizon the night is falling

Skyline closing in
Her eyes whispering
We swam across the night
To find

Underwater lights
Shadows in disguise
Your lips come close to mine
In time

Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh

Oh oh
Oh oh

Sunset in the breeze (Oh oh)
Drifting into me (Oh oh)
Her love will make it right (Oh)
This time

So take me
Away across the ocean
Out in the horizon the night is falling

Take me




Away across the ocean
Out in the horizon the night is falling

Overall Meaning

The song "Take Me" by Australian band Rüfüs has a dreamy and romantic feel from the very beginning, with the repeated "oh oh" vocals and the lyrics inviting the listener to be taken away across the ocean. The singer seems to be describing a situation where he meets a woman who promises to meet him again later, and in the moments of separation, he is longing to be with her. The lyrics are vivid, invoking images of sunset, the ocean, the horizon, and underwater lights.


The chorus repeats the invitation to be taken away across the ocean, expressing the desire to escape into the night falling on the horizon. In the second verse, the singer describes a moment when he and the woman meet again, with the skyline closing in and her eyes whispering. They have swum across the night to find each other, and the underwater lights and shadows create a surreal atmosphere, leading to the moment where their lips come close to each other.


Overall, the lyrics of the song create a sense of longing and romantic escapism, depicting a world where lovers can be taken away to idyllic places and forget about reality for a while. The dreamy and atmospheric music mirrors the mood of the lyrics and adds to the overall experience of the song.

And when the lights come down
I want to feel you standing next to me
And can you hear me out?
There's a lifetime in front of me
And when my time runs out
I want to feel you standing next to me


Baby, I knew this time would arrive
I knew this time would come
Ever since I first looked in your eyes
I said, "You're the one"
Oh my god, oh my god
Tell me I'm the one
Oh my god, oh my god


I want to feel you standing next to me


Late in the evening when the sun comes down
Under the starlight as the birds fly by
I see the dust fill the twilight skies
I feel the warmth of your hand in mine
It's in the air, it's in the air
It's in the air we breathe
It's all around, it's all around us now


And when the lights come down
I want to feel you standing next to me
And can you hear me out?
There's a lifetime in front of me
And when my time runs out
I want to feel you standing next to me


Baby, I knew this time would arrive
I knew this time would come
Ever since I first looked in your eyes
I said, "You're the one"
Oh my god, oh my god
Tell me I'm the one
Oh my god, oh my god


I want to feel you standing next to me


And when the lights come down
I want to feel you standing next to me

Tradução 🇧🇷

E quando as luzes se apagam
Eu quero sentir você, de pé, ao meu lado
E você pode me ouvir?
Há uma vida inteira na minha frente
E quando meu tempo acabar
Eu quero sentir você, de pé, ao meu lado

Amor, eu sabia que essa hora chegaria
Eu sabia que essa hora chegaria
Desde a primeira vez em que olhei em seus olhos
Eu disse: Você é a única
Meu Deus, meu Deus
Me diga que eu sou o único
Meu Deus, meu Deus

Eu quero sentir você, de pé, ao meu lado

Tarde da noite, quando o Sol se põe
Sob a luz das estrelas, enquanto os pássaros voam
Eu vejo a poeira encher os céus do crepúsculo
Eu sinto o calor da sua mão na minha
Está no ar, está no ar
Está no ar que respiramos
Está ao nosso redor, agora, está ao nosso redor

E quando as luzes se apagam
Eu quero sentir você, de pé, ao meu lado
E você pode me ouvir?
Há uma vida inteira na minha frente
E quando meu tempo acabar
Eu quero sentir você, de pé, ao meu lado

Amor, eu sabia que essa hora chegaria
Eu sabia que essa hora chegaria
Desde a primeira vez em que olhei em seus olhos
Eu disse: Você é a única
Meu Deus, meu Deus
Me diga que eu sou o único
Meu Deus, meu Deus

Eu quero sentir você, de pé, ao meu lado

E quando as luzes se apagam
Eu quero sentir você, de pé, ao meu lado

I feel my daughter standing next to me. But I look down to see her and she's not there. So I look up at the sky and beg her to come back down 😭

I wish I could meet & make friends with people who listen to this type of music. People who listen to artful music like this have depth to them. The world is filled with so many shallow people... what a blessing it would be to be able to connect with everyone who loves just chilling and listening to this.

@davidkral3498

I like the way you sad that ..!
