[Verse 1]
I was listening to the ocean
I saw a face in the sand
But when I picked it up
Then it vanished away from my hands, gone
I had a dream I was seven
Climbing my way in a tree
I saw a piece of heaven
Waiting in patience for me, down
[Pre-Chorus]
And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?
Nobody knows, nobody knows
And I was dancing in the rain
I felt alive and I can't complain
[Chorus]
But now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I can't take it anymore
[Verse 2]
I was painting a picture
The picture was a painting of you
And for a moment I thought you were here
But then again, it wasn't true, gone
And all this time I have been lying
Oh, lying in secret to myself
I've been putting sorrow on the farthest place on my shelf
La-di-da
[Pre-Chorus]
And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?
Nobody knows, nobody knows
And I was dancing in the rain
I felt alive and I can't complain
[Chorus]
But now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
Now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
Now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I can't take it anymore
[Bridge]
But I kept running for a soft place to fall
And I kept running for a soft place to fall
And I kept running for a soft place to fall
And I kept running for a soft place to fall
[Pre-Chorus]
And I was running far away
Would I run off the world someday?
[Chorus]
But now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
Now take me home
Take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
[Outro]
Now take me home, home where I belong, now, now
Now take me home, home where I belong, oh, oh
Now take me home, home where I belong, now, now
Now take me home, home where I belong
I can't take it anymore
