Take Me Somewhere Nice

Take me somewhere nice.
 To some tired island,
 In your heart,
 Called Paradise.
 Though we wander home
 We both feel alone
 Like escapees
 With nowhere to go.
 I can think of
 A thousand ways.
 To get good and lost
 Beyond these hopeless days ...
 Where we'll rendezvous
 Out of the blue
 And take a deep breath
 Just we two
 And we'll be so far gone
 The oars will row on
 And we will happily wave
 So long
 If we hook a dream
 And it tows us back down
 This open stream
 We'll say hello
 Oh, Oh
 Take us wherever you go.
 Take me somewhere deep.
 'Cause I'm quite exhausted
 And I need to sleep
 Or climb the great divide
 Or wake up beside myself
 Just to know I'm alive.
 Every wait around
 Pays me a visit
 And drags my eyelids down.
 They sting like growing pains
 Iced in the veins of a guy
 Who's not ready to die
 If I may be so bold
 I'll weather the cold.
 'Cause I'm not afraid to grow old.
 If we hook a dream
 And it tows us back down
 This open stream
 We'll say hello
 Oh, Oh
 Take us wherever you go.
