Lyrics Take Me Home - Young the Giant

Take Me Home

Sweetness
On the rips of your
Old dress
Twilight
Passed the banks of the
Warm fire
Whispers in the dark, they hit the trees
And they run into your heart to find mama’s sleeves
Daddy ain’t awake yet and daylight’s gone
You’re afraid of the dark, you think of mama’s bones
'Cuz I can’t live like this
'Cuz I heard your mama cry
Behind the door I’m listenin'
She said she’s gonna fly
With words your mouth she’s kissing
And she said
Oh oh oh, child
Your back is straight
Don’t let hurt curve it that way
Nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah…
Sweetness
On the ribs of your
Bare chest
Twilight
On the roof of that
Snowy night
You ran outside without your boots on
You could be lost, you find yourself at home
Where mama’s house is up on the sunrise
Sweet good God, just take me by surprise
'Cuz I can’t live like this
'Cuz I heard your mama cry
Behind the door I’m listenin'
She says she’s gonna try
With words your mouth she’s kissin'
And she said
Oh oh oh, child
Your back is straight
Don’t let hurt curve it that way
But I said mama, just take me home
Said I can’t stand bein' alone
'Cuz pain is shooting down my spine again
I said Daddy’s feelin' sick, oh I think he’s gonna quit
Nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah…
Sweetness
On the mouth of your caress
Twilight
Past the stars of that open night
