Take Me with You

The wide-eyed naïveté that filled my sails Was long gone before April showers fell And sidewalk amusements, they wash off in the rain And these years of solitude's more gentle hand It never resolved into any kind of plan So who am I to question now, a single thing you're saying? Oh-oh, take, take me with you Whatever the mystic whispered voices tell you I need to hear them, too Oh, take, take me with you If ever an answer lay in wait for a question It's me lying waiting for you So take, oh, take me with you Under this portico of redwood boughs Our schemes and our plans nearly laughable now Little flutterings that matter less than any whirl of wind Still, something brought both of us to this time and place Where things built so carefully are casually erased Maybe our little lives will make a little difference in the end Oh-oh, take, take me with you Whatever the mystic whispered voices tell you I need to hear them, too Oh, take, take me with you If ever an answer lay in wait for a question It's me lying waiting for you It's me lying waiting for you It's me lying waiting for you So take, oh, take me with you Oh-oh, take, take me with you Whatever the mystic whispered voices tell you I need to hear them, too Oh-oh, take me, oh, take me with you, ooh-ooh Honey, it's been years, and I've been here Here lying waiting for you I'm here lying waiting for you So take, oh, take me with you
