Take Me Back Lyrics by JEMS

2019

I can’t leave for too long
Too many heads turn if I’m gone
We used to drive through the night
And go everywhere but home

Just you, me & my car
Nowhere was too far
Horizon lines, truck stop finds and falling stars

Take me back to the time when I had not a thing to weigh down my mind
Take me back to the time when I jumped to a fling leaving life far behind
Take me back to a world where the stakes weren’t high, but we were sometimes
Take me back to the life that I left for the night
Meet me in the sunshine, meet me in the sunshine

I see your tired eyes
On the wrong side of sunrise
Coffee in the mug you once used to hide cheap wine

Before our days were full
Not knowing we were cool
Never held back by another man’s reality or rules

Caught up in a golden age I can see it all too clear
We placed our bets with no regrets
Oh, mirage, don’t disappear

Take me back to the time when I had not a thing to weigh down my mind
Take me back to the time when I jumped to a fling leaving life far behind
Take me back to a world where the stakes weren’t high, but we were sometimes
Take me back to the life that I left for the night
Meet me in the sunshine, meet me in the sunshine

Take me back
Take me back
Take me back

Take me back to the time when I had not a thing to weigh down my mind
Take me back to the time when I jumped to a fling leaving life far behind
Take me back to a world where the stakes weren’t high, but we were sometimes
Take me back to the life that I left for the night
Meet me in the sunshine, meet me in the sunshine
