Lyrics
take me home, my darling
I don't really want to fight anymore
take me home, my darling
neither one of us is right anymore
no need to feed this fire
we're like two riders
on a runaway train
speeding off to nowhere
it costs so much
and there's so little to gain
so take me home, my darling
take me home
our love seems so easy
that sometimes I don't
take the care that I should
I let the pointless things
displease me
too quick to anger,
too slow to make good
'til we're like two passing strangers
eyes averted, facing opposite ways
we live in quiet danger
when silent moments
stretch into silent days
so please
take me home, my darling
take me home -
we have got to break the silence today
when it goes on too long
we could lose our way
and if you're feeling that way too
there's just one thing I want you to do
take me home, my darling
there's better things
that we could do with this night
take me home, my darling
we'll see the morning
in a different light
this life is so uncertain
forever's really just
the time we have left
when that time is over
I have to know that
I gave you my best
take me home, my darling
take me home
