Barefoot McCoy - Take Me Away Lyrics
Head for the shore, my friend—the forest is on fire, you can seeThe smoke climb high into the night.Don’t be afraid, my friend—to follow the desire in your heart,You’ll always know which road is right.Don’t think you’re leaving me behindDon’t think you’re leaving me behindI’ll find a way—I’ll take my thousands of mistakesThat broke me down into the dust I am todayI’ll light 'em up in flames ‘fore I wade deep into the waterLet these ocean waves take me awayLearn to be still, my friend—I know that you are tired, I have seenThe color's fading in your eyes.There’ll come a day, my friend—when everything is quiet, for awhile.Another place—another time.Don’t think you’re leaving me behindDon’t think you’re leaving me behindI’ll find a way—I’ll take my thousands of mistakesThat broke me down into the dust I am todayI’ll light 'em up in flames ‘fore I wade deep into the waterLet these ocean waves take me awayI’ve fallen ill, my friend—it’s time I should retire to my home.Never stop until you’re free.But if you will, my friend—please burn me in the fire when I’ve goneGive my ashes to the sea.Don’t think you’re leaving me behindDon’t think you’re leaving me behindI’ll find a way—I’ll take my thousands of mistakesThat broke me down into the dust I am todayI’ll light 'em up in flames ‘fore I wade deep into the waterLet these ocean waves take me away
