[Verse 1] Your name on the dash Still burns in my head I took the long way home Just to hear what you said The red in the rearview Kept pulling me back One hand on the wheel One foot on the crack [Pre-Chorus] And I know this road Like the back of my hand But every turn I take Still leads where we began [Chorus] Take me back tonight Take me back tonight We were young and sharp And running on fire Take me back tonight Take me back tonight Don't let it fade out Don't let it fade out [Verse 2] You laughed at the rain On a parking garage Wrote our names in the dust Then you shot me that smile Now the same old streets Got your shadow in frame Every broken street sign Still says your name [Pre-Chorus] And I know this town Like a worn-out chord But every corner turns To the night before [Chorus] Take me back tonight Take me back tonight We were young and sharp And running on fire Take me back tonight Take me back tonight Don't let it fade out Don't let it fade out [Bridge] If the morning comes Let it come too slow I'll meet you halfway Where the old sparks glow One last look One last drive If we lose this moment We lose the light [Final Chorus] Take me back tonight Take me back tonight We were young and sharp And running on fire Take me back tonight Take me back tonight Don't let it fade out Don't let it fade out Take me back tonight Take me back tonight We were young and sharp And running on fire
