[Intro] [Instrumental: cinematic pads, distant crowd ambience, gated disco guitar] [Verse] Take me tonight, take me tonight Under the silver turning light Hold me close, don't let me go We have a little farther to go [Pre-Chorus] Your hands are warm, the room is wide I hear the promise in your eyes Count every breath, then let it rise We cross the dark into the light [Chorus] Take me tonight Take me tonight Higher, higher, side by side Take me tonight Take me tonight Leave the ordinary behind [Instrumental: disco vocal chops, strings, congas, brass hits] [Breakdown] [Female Group, close harmony] Stay with me, stay with me Even when the floor falls away Stay with me, stay with me We will find another way [Build] [Instrumental: percussion, snare rolls, rising arpeggio, white-noise risers] [Drop] [Female Group] Take me tonight, take me tonight Higher, higher, side by side [Call] Can you feel it? [Response] We can feel it! [Call] Will you follow? [Response] We will follow! [Bridge] [Female Group, distant filtered harmony] If the morning finds us changed Let this moment keep its name Every color, every flame Turns the distance into faith [Final Chorus] Take me tonight Take me tonight Higher, higher, side by side Take me tonight Take me tonight Leave the ordinary behind [Outro] Take me tonight Take me tonight [Instrumental: decaying pads, distant applause, tape fade]
