Take Me Away From Here
Tim McGraw · Set This Circus Down
Like there's a desert deep in me
A thirsty soul so unsatisfied
But there you are like a river to the sea
The one chance I have to change my life
Darlin', take my away from here
Make it seem like we're a million miles away
Another time another place
Make me a different man
Move me farther than I've ever been before
Show me that there's something more
Sometimes I feel like I'm trapped inside myself
Spinning wheels up and down, 'round and 'round
Going no where just like everybody else
With no touch, no sight, no sound
But you could take me away from here
Make it seem like we're a million miles away
Another time another place
Make me a different man
Move me farther than I've ever been before
Show me that there's something more
Give me hopes and dreams to fill my head
Push my heart so I can fly again
Take me away from here
Make it seem like we're a million miles away
Another time another place
Make me a different man
Move me farther than I've ever been before
Show me that there's something more
Take me away from here
Take me away from here
Take me away from here
Take me away from here
Take me away from here
