Take Me Away
Travis Bretzer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where I can lay my head upon your breast
I am looking for
The place where You will pour Your oil over me
All over me
Pour over me
Pour over me Your oil of perfect peace
I am looking for the time when I can steal away
To find the place of rest the place of peace
I am looking for
The time to steal away and be with You
To be with You
Take me away
Take me away so I can be with You
Travis Bretzer's song Take Me Away is a soulful anthem that expresses the artist's longing to connect with a spiritual power. The lyrics are heartfelt and convey a sense of yearning for a deeper connection with the divine. In the first verse, Bretzer sings about his desire for a place where he can rest his head and feel the comforting presence of a nurturing force. He sings: "I am looking for, I am longing for the place / Where I can lay my head upon your breast / I am looking for / The place where You will pour Your oil over me / All over me."
This imagery of being anointed with oil is often used in biblical scriptures to symbolize being blessed or consecrated by God. Bretzer continues to plead with this spiritual power to pour over him "Your oil of perfect peace." In the second verse, the artist sings about needing to "steal away" to find a place of rest and peace where he can be with this divine entity. The chorus echoes this call for transcendence: "Take me away / Take me away so I can be with You."
