Lyrics

Take On Me

Talking away, I don't know what I'm to say

I'll say it anyway, today's another day to find you

Shying away, I'll be coming for your love, okay

Take on me, take me on

I'll be gone in a day or two

So needless to say, I'm odds and ends but that's me

Stumbling away, slowly learning that life is okay

Say after me it's no better to be safe than sorry

Take on me, take me on

I'll be gone in a day or two

The things that you say is it life or just to play my worries away?

You're all the things I've got to remember

You're shying away, I'll be coming for you anyway

Take on me, take me on

I'll be gone in a day or two

Take on me, take me on

I'll be gone in a day or two
