Take Me With You
Tyrone & Carr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And when you smiled at me,
In my heart I felt a thrill you see,
That it was love at sight and
I was right to love you as I do.
Still I never dreamed that you could love me too.
Your eyes of blue, your kisses too,
I can't believe that you're in love with me.
You're telling ev'ry one I know
I'm on your mind each place we go
They can't believe that you're in love with me.
I have always placed you far above me.
I just can't imagine that you love me.
And after all is said and done,
To think that I'm the lucky one.
I can't believe that you're in love with me.
Skies are gray. I'm blue each day
When you are not around.
Ev'ry thing goes wrong, my dear I've found
But when you're by my side I fill with pride
For I'm so proud of you
It all seems too good to me to all be true
Your eyes of blue, your kisses too,
I never knew what they could do.
I can't believe that you're in love with me.
You're telling ev'ry one I know
I'm on your mind each place we go
They can't believe that you're in love with me.
I have always placed you far above me.
I just can't imagine that you love me.
And after all is said and done,
To think that I'm the lucky one.
I can't believe that you're in love with me.
The song "Take Me With You" by Tyrone & Carr is a classic love song that describes the surprise of finding mutual love with someone who was initially thought to be unreachable. The first verse describes the first encounter with the person who is now deeply loved, and the thrill that filled their heart upon seeing that person. The chorus repeats the disbelief that this person could actually reciprocate their feelings for them, and how others are also amazed that they are together. The second verse highlights how the absence of this person makes everything in life seem wrong or incomplete. The verse concludes that when they are together, the singer feels proud to be with their partner, and cannot believe that they are actually in love with them.
Upon closer inspection, there seems to be a sense of inadequacy felt by the singer, as they cannot believe that someone they perceive as superior to them could love them back. This is highlighted in the line "I have always placed you far above me. / I just can't imagine that you love me". Additionally, the singer mentions how others are surprised that they are together, which could imply that the relationship was initially perceived as unlikely due to perceptions of social status, class, or appearance. Nevertheless, the song ends on a positive note, with the singer reflecting on how fortunate they are to be the recipient of their partner's love.
