Lyrics Take It To the Limit - Etta James

Take It To the Limit

All alone at the end of the evening
And the bright lights have faded to blue.
I was thinking 'bout a woman who might have loved me,
I never knew.
You know I’ve always been a dreamer SPENT MY LIFE RUNNING ROUND
And it’s so hard to change CAN’T SEEM TO SETTLE DOWN
But the dreams I’ve seen lately keep on turning out
And burning out and turning out the same.
So put me on a highway and show me a sign
and take it to the limit one more time.
You can spend all your time making money,
You can spend all your love making time.
If it all fell to pieces tomorrow
Would you still be mine?
And when you’re looking for your freedom NOBODY SEEMS TO CARE
And you can’t find the door CAN’T FIND IT ANYWHERE
When there’s nothing to believe in still you’re coming back,
You’re running back, you’re coming back for more.
So put me on a highway and show me a sign
and take it to the limit one more time.
Take it to the limit, take it to the limit,
take it to the limit one more time.
Take it to the limit, take it to the limit,
take it to the limit one more time.
Take it to the limit, take it to the limit,
take it to the limit one more time.
Take it to the limit, take it to the limit,
take it to the limit one more time.
Take it to the limit, take it to the limit,
take it to the limit one more time.
Take it to the limit, take it to the limit,
take it to the limit one more time.
Take it to the limit, take it to the limit,
take it to the limit one more time.
(fade out)
