Take Me Away Lyrics Meanings
by John Legend

Yeah, yeah

We danced and sing, somewhere in between heaven and hell
Gabrielle, that was her name
Everyone was smiling, even through their tears, under her spell
But in Gabrielle's eyes, nothing
I asked, "Do you not like the music?"
She said, "It's alright"
But she dances to her own side
So she says,

Take me away from here
Take me somewhere, where love is like breathing
I don't care where we go as long as I'm there with you, baby

Long as I'm there with you

I could tell, she's been through pain I could only dream
Nightmares live where you live
Tears were in her eyes, but she wouldn't let them fall
I get the world to know a her smile is
I asked, "do you dance with me now?"
Let me try to figure out
The fastest round out of town
And she says

Take me away from here
Take me somewhere, where love is like breathing
I don't care where we go as long as I'm there with you, baby

Oh oh yeah yeah yeah
I got a full tank of gas
Anywhere you wanna go, girl
All you have to do is ask girl
Oh, she said,

Take me away from here
Take me somewhere, where love is like breathing
I don't care where we go as long as I'm there with you, baby

Take me away from here
Take me somewhere, where love is like breathing
I don't care where we go as long as I'm there with you, baby
