(Verse 1) I’m standing in a crowded room But somehow feel alone Everybody talking loud Yet nobody feels at home People running through their days Chasing things they cannot keep Building walls around their hearts While forgetting how to sleep Sometimes I look up at the sky And wonder what is waiting there A place beyond the noise below A place with something more to share (Pre-Chorus) If there’s a road beyond the darkness If there’s a light beyond this pain If there’s a place where hope still lives Then come and carry me away (Chorus) Take me away from where I am now Take me to a better place Take me away where only love knows where to find me Leaving all the rest Somewhere where they’re nicer Loving and kinder A place where all embrace It’s difficult to find here Nobody seems to mind it They’re all working their own case Maybe when I find it I’ll try not to be blinded And share some with the rest Take me away from the blind and the madmen Waging wars for financial gains Make sure that when you take me there None of that kind of energy remains I just wanna go now To live my dreams out loud now Take me away from this place Far across the stars To a different world maybe With something other than the human race (Post-Chorus) Take me away Take me away Take me away To a better place (Verse 2) Maybe there’s a distant world Where nobody hides their pain Where kindness isn’t weakness And nobody profits from the blame Where children never fear tomorrow And nobody is left behind Where every soul belongs somewhere And peace is easy to find Maybe they don’t see their differences Maybe they don’t build divides Maybe every heart is valued And nobody has to choose a side (Pre-Chorus) If there’s a road beyond the darkness If there’s a light beyond this pain If there’s a place where hope still lives Then come and carry me away (Chorus) Take me away from where I am now Take me to a better place Take me away where only love knows where to find me Leaving all the rest Somewhere where they’re nicer Loving and kinder A place where all embrace It’s difficult to find here Nobody seems to mind it They’re all working their own case Maybe when I find it I’ll try not to be blinded And share some with the rest Take me away from the blind and the madmen Waging wars for financial gains Make sure that when you take me there None of that kind of energy remains I just wanna go now To live my dreams out loud now Take me away from this place Far across the stars To a different world maybe With something other than the human race (Bridge) And if I find that distant shoreline I’ll send a signal through the night For every soul still searching For a world that feels more right No crowns No borders No hatred left to defend Just open hearts And open arms And strangers becoming friends (Final Chorus) Take me away from where I am now Take me to a better place Take me away where only love knows where to find me Leaving all the rest Somewhere where they’re nicer Loving and kinder A place where all embrace Maybe when I find it I’ll try not to be blinded And share some with the rest Take me away from the blind and the madmen Waging wars for financial gains Make sure that when you take me there None of that kind of energy remains I just wanna go now To live my dreams out loud now Take me away from this place Far across the stars To a different world maybe With something other than the human race (Outro) Take me away Take me away Far across the stars Take me away To a better place
