Take Me Home

Is it raining
I don’t feel the water drops
Not against my face
Why are they walking so fast ?
Is the rain catching them
Under a wave of the quiet night

Was that lightning
I didn’t see a single thing
But knew where stars shine
What am I now waiting for ?
It’s just your coat around my body

Take me home, oh take me home
Don’t let the night take us
Morning will break, morning will fall
And under a wave of your heart
Take me home with you

The taste of wine
Still floating from bone to bone
All around in me
But you saved me before I
Would have drowned in you
But I am still drunken by your wine

The butterflies
Do you feel them in the night
Are they trying to
Catch us in the quiet night
It’s just your coat around my body

Take me home, oh take me home
This night can take too long
And has already taken my sleep
I just want to be safe with you
So take me home with you

I just need to be safe with you
Will you close me around your arms
It’s just your coat around my body
Take me home, will you
Take me home with you
