If I've learned anything from this, It would all be gone, it would all be gone And I will take away your breath. Just to turn me on, yeah you turn me on Down where the city meets the sea I sit and daylight speaks to me She carries me away Oh yeah I'll find my way Would fall from grace With the little piece of you that's left in me But then it's one, two, three and you're back to me, And all the pieces fit together oh so perfectly Enough to take me home Just take me home If I've learned anything from this, It would all be gone, it would all be gone And I will take away your breath. Just to turn me on, yeah you turn me on. We'll find our way We'll leave this place With the little piece of me that's left in you But then it's one, two, three and you're back to me And if you hear me loud and clear then what's the problem dear? Why won't you take me home? If I've learned anything from this, It would all be gone, it would all be gone And I will take away your breath. Just to turn me on, yeah you turn me on. Down where the city meets the sea I sit and daylight speaks to me She carries me away Just take me home Why won't you take me home? If I've learned anything from this, It would all be gone, it would all be gone And I will take away your breath. Just to turn me on, yeah you turn me on. Down where the city meets the sea I sit and daylight speaks to me She carries me away Down where the city meets the sea I sit and daylight speaks to me Yeah, daylight speaks to me
