Verse
*********************************************
Here Guitar1 is doing some simple things, but if you
are going to play this song live, i recommend you to
play random arpegios according to chords.
And also it's not necsesary to play Guitar2 because
it's sound is really weak

Lyrics
This time all I want is you
There is no one else who
Can take your place
This time you burned me with your eyes
You see past all the lies
You take it all away
I’ve seen it all and it’s never enough
It keeps leaving me needing you
Take me away
Take me away
I’ve got nothing left to say
Just take me away
I try to make my way to you
But still I feel so lost
I don’t know what else
I can do
I’ve seen it all and it’s never enough
It keeps leaving me needing you
Take me away
Take me away
I’ve got nothing left to say
Just take me away
Don’t give up on me yet
Don’t forget who I am
I know I’m not there yet
But don’t let me stay here alone
This time all I want is you
There is no one else who
Can take your place
This time you burned me with your eyes
You see past all the lies
You take it all away
I’ve seen it all and it’s never enough
It keeps leaving me needing you
Take me away
Take me away
I’ve got nothing left to say
Just take me away

| i am desperate not to offend anyone, but i don't think this song is necessarily about god. i am not particularly religious and yet the song still means a lot to me - i think it's about someone who's finally found or maybe just finally recognized his true love. | |

| I totally agree with wildflower154. He saying in his heart he is missing something, that no girl/guy can ever fill. No matter how much you love a guy/girl they can never come close to GOD's love. When he says "take me away" I think he is telling GOD to come live in him. Lifehouse is a great band and Jason must be a wonderful guy because of his trying 2 do the right thing that GOD wants him to do. This song is great!! | |

| When there is nothing left of the world..God will still remain. We go through life, living for material reasons..and it seems you can never have enough!! but we forget that there is more out there than mere material possessions. Sometimes we take God for granted...we go out into the world and do our own thing...but when we are left unsatisfied and searching for something more..we always come back because He is the only thing important. | |

| This song makes me want to cry! Jason and whoever else wrote this song is really awesome. "take me away, i've got nothing left to say". Oh God. *tears up* I think everyone's thoughts about God+Take Me Away could be right. I actually never thought about it that way until I read the responses. | |

| Hey this song was on Boston Public tonight with the rest of the band. Such a beautiful song...reminds me of my girlfriend who I took for granted for so long. It was only when she was gone that I realized how much I missed her. | |

| I still think things like this should be left uninterpreted. Meanings of these kinds of songs are unique to the listener. Some may find it leading to God, some may relate it to other things in their life in which they find release... Something that clears their mind and eases their troubles. | |

| im not going to say anything about some people's "god" POV of this song...i think the song is about someone calling out to someone else asking for help. hes saying help me. get me out of here, take me away...its such a pretty song...its my fave on Stanley Climbfall... and jason wade is a sexgod... | |
