Gonna Take It Lyrics

Smile, your lovely smile
and tell me of tomorrows for awhile
in the hole, my hand
and tell me, tell me, tell me what, understand

i, know your name
and every no one else i trust now
bear this shame
so, so come on open up your hearts
and i will take it back to the beginning
i will

yes i am
gonna take it
gonna take it
gonna take it, right back from the start

gonna take it
gonna take it
gonna take it, right back from the start

yes i am weary, and i am torn
yeah
been fighting a war that started before,
since i was born
and now before it tears my heart
and never far
cause this is my rock nomination,
this is me



and she said, taste the spice
and just hang it up in the corner
where everything looks nice
and the same well used to be same
this is your help man, this is your wealth
and your long time dead

yes i am,
gonna take it
gonna take it
gonna take it, right back from the start

gonna take it
gonna take it
gonna take it, right back from the start

gonna take it
gonna take it
gonna take it, right back from the start

gonna take it
gonna take it
gonna take it, right back from the start.

This song is amazing. The lyrics are off though:

Smile, your lovely smile Tell me of tomorrows for awhile And hold my hand, and tell me, tell me, tell me you understand

Oh, I know you're name and there ain't no one else I trust now with this shame So, come on and open up your heart and I will take it back to the beggining I will

Yes I am gonna take it gonna take it gonna take it, right back from the start

gonna take it gonna take it gonna take it, right back from the start

Yes I am weary, I am torn Been fighting a war that started before yes, i was born And now before it tears my heart clean apart this is my proclamation, this is me

and she said, "taste the spice, don't just hang it up in the corner where it looks nice." And the same, well, needs to be said, 'Cuz your health man is your wealth, and you're a long time dead.

Yes I am, gonna take it gonna take it gonna take it, right back from the start

gonna take it gonna take it gonna take it, right back from the start

gonna take it gonna take it gonna take it, right back from the start

gonna take it gonna take it gonna take it, right back from the start.

These lyrics really speak to me because they're talking about a love that isn't new but the speaker wants to keep the love pure like when you first fall. My favorite line in the song is when she says "taste the spice, don't just hang it up in the corner where it looks nice. Fantastic.
