Take Me Somewhere Nice

Take me somewhere nice
To some tired island in your heart called paradise

Though we wander home, we both feel alone
Like escapees with nowhere to go
I can think of a thousand ways
To get good and lost beyond these hopeless days

When we'll rendevouz out of the blue
And take a deep breath, just we two
And we'll be so far gone, the oars will row on
And we will happily wave so long

If we hook a dream
And it tows us back down this older street
We'll say hello, oh, oh
Take us wherever you go

Take me somewhere deep
Because I'm quite exhausted and I need to sleep

Or climb the great divide, I wake up beside myself just to know I'm alive
Every weight around pays me a visit and drags my islands down

And they sting like growing pains
Iced in the veins of the guy who's not ready to die
If I may be so bold, I'll weather the cold
'Cause I'm not afraid to grow old

If we hook a dream
And it tows us back down this older street
We'll say hello, oh, oh
Take us wherever you go
