Take It to the Limit Songtext
von Etta James

All alone at the end of the evening
When the bright lights have faded to blue
I was thinking about a man who might′ve loved me
And I never knew

You know I've always been a dreamer
(Spent my life running ′round)
And it's so hard to change
(Can't seem to settle down)
But the dreams I′ve seen lately
Keep turning out and burning out
And turning out the same, hey!

So put me (put me)
On a highway (a highway)
And show me (show me) a sign
And take it to the limit one more time

You can spend all your time making money, yeah
You can spend all your love making time
If it all fell to pieces tomorrow
Would you still be mine?


And when you′re looking
When you're looking for freedom
(Nobody seems to care)
Oh, You can′t find the door
(Can't find it anywhere)
When there′s nothing to believe in
Still you're coming back
You running back
You comming back for more

Oh, oh, put me (put me)
On a highway (highway)
And show me (show me) show me a sign
And take it to the limit one more time
(One more time)

Take it (take It) to the limit (to the limit)
Take it (take It) to the limit (to the limit)
Take it to the limit one more (one more time)

Oh, take it (take It) to the limit (to the limit)
Come on, take it (take It) to the limit (to the limit)
Oh, take it (take It) to the limit one more (one more time)

Oh, oh (to the limit)
Take it (take It) to the limit (to the limit)
Take it, yeah, one more (one more time)

Take it (take It) to the limit (to the limit)
Take it (take It) to the limit (to the limit)
Take it (take It) to the limit (one more time)


Oh, oh (take It)
Oh, oh (to the limit)
Oh, oh (take It)
Oh, oh (to the limit)
Oh, oh (take It)
Oh, oh (one more time)

Take it (take It) to the limit (to the limit)
Take it (take It) to the limit (to the limit)
Take it (take It) to the limit one more time (one more time)
