The John Butler Trio
"Take Me"

Take it from me
Come take me home
I'll be the one for you
One for you
One for you

Dry mellow skin
Right to the wall
Back into me
I am ripe for the taking
Twist me, turn me
Throw me around
Drunken disclosure
Of lonely emotion
Yes, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful lies
Lies, lies, oh, lies

Take me, take me, take me
Won't you?
Take me, take me
Won't you, love?

Something so warm
So sweet and cold
You said you loved me
Yes, you said you'd come in
How could you go
Leave me here?
Hungry and haunting
Yes, desperate and lonely

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful lies
Lies, lies, oh, lies
I cannot stand this dumb look in your eye
Ohhh...

Take me, take me, take me
Won't you?
Take me, take me
Won't you, love?

Could have been
Should have been
Back and forth
Running around and round in circles
Been waiting for you, oh I
All of these, in the street
Now I'm praying for mercy, mercy, mercy
I'm pleading with you

Woah.

Take me, take me, take me
Won't you?
Take me, take me
Won't you, love?
