Take on Me Lyrics

[Intro]
One, two, one two three four!
Pick it up!
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba!

[Verse 1]
Talking away
I don't know what's left to say
I'll say it anyway
Today is not my day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, OK?

[Chorus]
Take on me
Take me on
I'll be gone
In a day or two

[Verse 2]
So needless to say
I'm odds and ends
But I'll be stolen away
Slowly learning that life is okay
Say after me
It's no better to be safe than sorry
[Chorus]
Take on me
Take me on
I'll be gone
In a day or two

[Interlude]
Hah! Hah!
Hey!
(Yeah!)

[Verse 3]
Oh, things that you say
Yeah, is it a life or just to play my worries away
You're all the things I've got to remember
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love anyway

[Outro]
Take on me
Take me on
I'll be gone
In a day (Take on me)
Take me on
I'll be gone
In a day

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
