Taking You Home Lyrics

I had a good life
Before you came
I had my friends and my freedom
I had my name

Still there was sorrow and emptyness
Till you made me glad
Oh and this love
I found strength
Never knew i had

And this love
Is like nothing i have ever known
Take my hand
I'm taking you home
Taking you home

There were days, lonely days
When the world
Wouldn't throw me a crumb
But I kept on believin'
That this day would come

And this love
Is like nothig like I have ever known baby
Take my hand
I'm takin you home
I'm taking you home
Where we can be with the ones who really care
Home
Where we can grow old together
Keep you in my heart forever
Oh and this love
Is like nothing I have ever known
Take my hand
Taking you home
Taking you home

Yes I am

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 [?]
