Take Me Home - Maxïmo Park

And the moon is

Hidden tonight

By a swab of cotton

Sodden with light

(Take me home)

And this is our street corner

Where no-one else has kissed-goodnight

(No-one else)

And this is sacred ground

Whenever you’re around

Take me home

I want you

There’ll be no postponing

Any of our emotions tonight

I fell asleep with the phone in my hand

You’re getting accustomed to a fallible man

(Take me home)

Some gentlemen prefer brunettes

But that’s an arbitrary turn of events

(Take me home)

I know you’re gonna leave

So grant me my reprieve!

Take me home
