Take You Home
I really shouldn’t feel so pleased
If I see you walk towards me
I shouldn’t need to concentrate
To stop me staring at your face
It shouldn’t leave me out of breath
If you light my cigarette
It’s sending shivers through my skin
It shouldn’t do, but here’s the thing...

I just wanna take you home
I just wanna take you home
I don’t wanna be good or strong
I don’t wanna know about right or wrong
I just wanna take you home

I could ask you right out straight
But something makes me hesitate
I’d kiss you if I had the nerve
But somehow I am much too scared
I don’t even have the guts
The meet your gaze when our hands touch
It’s not like me to be this weak
Oh Christ, I’m trembling like a leaf...

I just wanna take you home
I just wanna take you home
Cause I feel like a cliché from every song
I’ve ever heard or ever sung
And I don’t wanna hear about right or wrong
I just wanna take you home ‘til dawn, ‘til the dawn
I just wanna take you home
I really shouldn’t feel so pleased
If I see you walk towards me...
