Take Me Away: Part II

by Capri   Oct 7, 2007


Theres a place far from here
where I used to go
to listen to my thoughts
trying to find my soul
Its somewhere near my childhood home
a place not so far from here
Ill tell you the story if youll only listen
so lend me your ear and sit closely
I sat on the grass
kicked off my shoes
listened to the water
and played with the lies
they danced in my head
and clouded my feelings
never again could I let him know

Take me away
far from this place
where my soul is happy
where everything is perfect
a place to be free
a place to be loved
needed and wanted
the place that allowed me to feel
what I felt in your arms.

I took off my clothes,
sunk into the cool water of the pond.
Felt the fish bite my toes,
felt my life slip away.
It doesnt matter any more
the lies that I spread
the hearts that were broke
the one I left behind.
None of it matters anymore.

Take me away.
Far far away from here.
A place to be loved
a place to be free
from you
from me
from all my fears,
hopes and dreams
let me be free,
Far away from here

Take me away.
Let me touch the clouds,
let my pain melt away
Soar in the stars,
let my heart beat free

The water overtook me
The grass pulled at my feet
The coldness enveloped me
Then I went away.
My eyes turned blank and glassy.
The water clogged my throat,
My pain drifted away.
No more can I hurt.
No more will the pain reside there
No more.
Im gone

They took me away
Far from this place,
And now Im free.
Im at peace.
They took me away.
Ive felt the clouds
Ive floated in stars.
My soul is happy.
And now I am loved.

They took me away
Far from home.
The place I once wanted
is now what I fear.

Take me away
Far from my new place
Let me be home
Where the laughter was,
Where I could dance in the rain
Where I could stay up all night
Where its not nice to lie
not nice to be mean
TAKE ME AWAY
far from here
take me home
where I was free
I was loved
I was
