LYRIC SAMPLE: "TAKE ME BACK"

TAKE ME BACK,
TO THE TIME,
WHEN I WAS JUST A YOUNG.

GIVE ME THAT TIME.
TO KNOW MY MIND.
PULL ME OUT .
OF WHAT’S BECOME.

Refrain
I HAVE WALKED AWAY,
FROM THINGS I KNEW,
AND NOW I AM LOST
WITH NOTHING LEFT TO DO.

(V. 2)
REMEMBER WHEN,
IT WAS JUST YOU AND ME?
WE’D RUN AROUND,
LIKE WE WERE FREE.

TAKE ME BACK,
TO THINGS WE KNEW,
BEFORE THE CROWDS,
WOULD COME ON THRU,

Refrain
AND TRAMPLED DREAMS;
WE HAD BEFORE,
WHEN WE THOUGHT,
IT WAS JUST YOU, LORD.

JUST TAKE ME BACK,
TO WHERE IT WAS,
WHERE IT WAS YOU AND ME.

(V. 3)
EVERYDAY,
IT’S SO ROUTINE,
THERE’S NOTHING NICE,
THERE’S NOTHING CLEAN.

(Bridge)
JUST BRING ME CLOSE TO YOU!

(Chorus)
LET MY DREAMS COME TRUE,
LET BE ALL WITH YOU,
LET IT BE WHAT WE USED TO KNOW.

WHAT IS SO FAR AWAY,
WANT IT BACK TODAY,
SEEMS THAT NOTHING’S HERE TO STAY.

LORD, DOES IT ALL HAVE TO GO AWAY?

(V. 5)
YOU AND ME;
IS HOW IT WAS,
I’D PLAY ALL NIGHT,
AND DAY WOULD COME.

GIVE ME TIME,
RENEW MY MIND,
PULL ME OUT,
OF WHAT’S BECOME.

TAKE ME BACK,
TO THE TIME
WHEN I WAS JUST A YOUNG.

TAME ME BACK,
TO THE TIME,
WHEN I WAS YOURS,
AND YOU WERE MINE.
