[Verse 1] In my coat pocket A paper I forgot One folded ticket To a place I’m not Coffee on my fingers Mud on my shoes I missed that early bus Now I’m stuck with you [Pre-Chorus] The clock keeps moving But I’m standing still Got your name on my mind And a plan I can’t fill [Chorus] Take me anyway Take me anyway One small paper And a whole day Take me anyway Take me anyway If I’m already late Let me stay [Verse 2] At the corner bakery They’re pulling bread apart Steam on the window Frost in my heart I watch the traffic Like it knows my name Every car goes somewhere I do the same [Pre-Chorus] The clock keeps moving But I’m standing still Got your name on my mind And a plan I can’t fill [Chorus] Take me anyway Take me anyway One small paper And a whole day Take me anyway Take me anyway If I’m already late Let me stay [Bridge] I could rip it up Start clean in the rain But I like the crease I like the stain A little lost thing In my open hand Maybe that’s enough To change the plan [Chorus] Take me anyway Take me anyway One small paper And a whole day Take me anyway Take me anyway If I’m already late Let me stay
