Why Can't I Take You Home

(H.P. Long)



I can see that want me look

That's gleaming in your eyes

And the certain way you touch me

Makes me feel so warm inside.



And when you hold me close

Oh Lord, I feel desire so strong

If I've got what it takes

Why can't I take you home?



Just hold me and help me

Hide this loneliness

The time we share together

Can fill the emptiness.



If it's just for tonight

And tomorrow finds me gone

If I've got what it takes

Why can't I take you home?



--- Instrumental ---



Just take me and make me

The kind of love you need

For I'm not ashamed

Of the wanting in me.



If it's just for tonight

And tomorrow finds me gone

If I've got what it takes

Why can't I take you home?



If I've got what it takes

Why can't I take you home?...
