Don't Take Me Home Songtext
von Terry Kelly

Starin′ in through the window
From the crowded city street
He feels a chill as the wind blows
And the snow falls at his feet
Sometimes, he thinks he's dreamin′
And it's all he can do not to cry
Oh, let me be, I will survive

Her eyes are closed and she trembles
Her childhood slips away
She's lost and broken, in shambles
Again, she′s been betrayed
Oh, if home is where the heart is
Then that′s a cold hard place inside
If that's all there is, can she survive?

Don′t take me home
I want to be on my own
In a place a thousand worlds from here
Where all my troubles disappear
Don't take me home


If only they were much older
They could take themselves away
And lift this weight from their shoulders
Will they ever see that day
When dreams will be worth dreamin′
And they will know what it's like to cry?
In our darkest night, we will survive

Don′t take me home
I want to be on my own
In a place a thousand worlds from here
Where all my troubles disappear
Don't take me home

If there's a way to release me
Could I start my life again?
Like a mountain, I′ll stand tall
And find the strength somewhere within

Don′t take me home
I want to be on my own
In a place a thousand worlds from here
Where all my troubles disappear
Don't take me home

Don′t take me home
I want to be on my own
In a place a thousand worlds from here
Where all my troubles disappear
Don't take me home


Don′t take me home
I want to be on my own
