Take on Me Lyrics

Talking away
I don't know what I'm to say
I'll say it anyway
Today isn't my day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, OK?

Take on me (take on me)
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

So needless to say
Of odds and ends
But I'll be stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is OK
Say after me
It's no better to be safe than sorry

Take on me (take on me)
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

Oh, things that you say
Is it a life or just to play my worries away?
You're all the things I've got to remember
You're shying away
I'll be coming for you anyway
Take on me (take on me)
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day

Take on me (take on me)
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day

How to Format Lyrics:

  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

From their YouTube description:

HEY HEY everybody, here’s our cover of the 80’s pop hit “Take On Me,” by A-ha with a video from footage we filmed in Edinburgh, Scotland. Sam did a version of this song on Cougar Town (appearing as his Scrubs' character, “Ted Buckland”) and we liked it enough to give it a try.
