Take Me Somewhere Lyrics
I get the tiller, you get the line
Crystalline water with manta-ray shine
Annapolis ships heel and dip
Swift Rangers' lines clean and sleek
Does the mainsheet remind you of me
Do nautical things make you miss the sea
Make fast the lines please don't waste anytime
Oh, I feel the wind blowing
Sultry in the summer heat
I know with you we can't be beat
Take me somewhere
Sitting in the sand
Waiting for you to return to land
Take me somewhere
Crystalline water with manta-ray shine
Annapolis ships heel and dip
Swift Rangers' lines clean and sleek
Do nautical things make you miss the sea
Make fast the lines please don't waste anytime
Oh, I feel the wind blowing
Sultry in the summer heat
I know with you we can't be beat
Take me somewhere
Waiting for you to return to land
Take me somewhere

i love tennis and would appreciate a lyric interpretation!
I think it's about having an other half that is so preoccupied with something else that he/she forgets about you. In the song, the singer's better half is off sailing and she wishes he would take her with him.
I made an attempt at transcribing the lyrics below. There are some parts that I'm unsure about, because they don't seem to make a lot of sense, but I think this is an improvement over what is here. :P As for meaning, it seems to me that the song is just about missing sailing while on land and wanting to get back out on the water. It might be partially metaphorical in a sense similar to what swatz93 said. I also considered that it might be from the point of view of a boat, maybe abandoned, neglected, or replaced, but I'm unsure about that.
I’ll get the two, you get the line Crystalline water with man to a shine
Now, these ships wheel and dip Soft rangers’ lives, clean and sleek Does the main sheet remind you of me? Do nautical things make you miss the sea? Make fast the lines, please don’t waste any time Oh, I feel the wind blowing
Start you in the summer, he don’t know if you would captain me Take me somewhere Take me somewhere Take me somewhere Why don’t you take me somewhere?
Sitting in the sand, waiting for you to return to land Sitting in the sand, waiting for you to return to land Take me somewhere Take me somewhere Why don’t you take me somewhere?
