Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take me home, take me home
I know another place to be
Take me home, take me home
You deserve a girl like me
Come on I know somewhere
You can unwind
We can just disappear
Now's the time
Take me home, take me home
Only fair I get my way
Take me home, take me home
Oh it's going to happen anyway
I know what's good for you
Don't pass me by
I will look after you
You'll be fine
I'm in heaven I'll show you heaven it's so much heaven
Let's make a move
Lets leave this world behind
I know you approve by the look in your eyes
I'm in heaven I'll show you heaven It's so much heaven
Take me home take me home
I will show you where to walk
Take me home take me home
Baby let the people talk
We'll get away from here
I'm reading your mind
We can just disappear
Now's the time
I'm in heaven, I'll show you heaven take me home
Oh, take me home
Oh, take me home
In this moment one night with you
All alone with nothing to loose
Let's make a move
Let's leave this world behind
I know you approve by the look in your eyes
I'm in heaven I'll show you heaven it's so much heaven
Take me home, take me home
Now's the time to follow me
Take me home




Come and live what ought to be
Take me home take me home

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sophie Ellis-Bextor's "Take Me Home" speak of a desire to escape from the worries of everyday life and enter into another realm. Ellis-Bextor pleads to the person she is addressing to take her away from this world and into a place where they can be alone together. She assures them that they will be safe with her, and promises that it will be a beautiful experience. The lyrics suggest that the person is hesitant, but the singer is determined and confident that this is what they both want. The theme of escapism is very prominent, with the singer constantly saying how they want to get away from everything and find a haven where they can just relax and be together.


The lyrics in the chorus repeat the line "take me home", this reinforces the message of wanting to escape and go to a place where they can be alone together. The verse lines express the singer's confidence that the person she is addressing will enjoy the escape as well. The song concludes with the two voices singing in harmony, emphasizing the need for them to be together and escape into "something special" that they both seek.

What a phenomenon..
Realy realy entertaining talented performer..
Mesmerising looks..
She should of been signed up by some of the top supermodel agencies worldwide...
She's breathtakingly beautiful..
and ultra confident in herself...
She was more stunning and elegant...
than most of the top catwalk models...
Past and present...
She shredded vikki becks all counts..
for beauty.. charisma.. and talent..
And got to number 1 in her toe to toe with vikki becks..
Totally naturally breathtaking to look at..
An extraordinarily confident talented artiste..
A pleasure to watch...
Thank you Sophie...

She looks like a porcelain doll/mannequin/supermodel her beauty is so regal and her voice is very unique there’s nobody like her...this is one of my most favourite songs and music video of her, i love the concept of the video,cause she looks like a vogue cover girl and she’s doing that haute couture poses like a true supermodel and my most favourite part here is the bridge verse she sound so calming and oh my gosh she looks like a goddess in that gown
