Take Me Down Lyrics

take me down, to the underground
won't you take me down, to the underground
why oh why, there is no light
and if i can't sleep, can you hold my life
and all i see is you
take my hand, i lost where i began
in my heart i know all of my faults
will you help me understand
and i believe in you
you're the other half of me
soothe and heal...
when you sleep, when you dream,
i'll be there if you need me, whenever i hear you sing...
there is a sun, it'll come, the sun, i hear them call me down
i held you once, a love that once, and life had just begun
and you're all i see...
and trumpets blew, and angels flew on the other side
and you're all i see, and you're all i'll need
there's a love that god puts in your heart

Call me crazy but whenever I hear this song I always think it would be great to have a version of this sung by Kermit the Frog. I don't know why but I always think of Kermit singing this. Musically I think his voice would be perfect. Well the Jim Henson's version of his voice; so it will never happen

this is how my girlfriend makes me feel when we're together. This song isn't quite Billy's style but I love the way James Iha sings this song, he has such a soft and soothing voice. This song to me talks about how your significant other can bring out the best in you and complete you.

ok... i dont want to piss anyone off but... Iha needs to keep his lips away from Corgan's mic. far far away

@BeterThanYouFakeIt You can scream into a pillow or hit a pillow. That might be a better way to deal with your rage in the future(I know your future is already 15 years and going)\r\n\r\nAlso, I don\'t understand where you were coming from.

this song is absolutely beautiful... it makes me want to cry and smile at the same time. james iha has a beautiful, soft, romantic voice. i've never heard love portrayed in a more beautiful way. it's not about pain at all. it's just about the pure joy of love.

On Easter of this year (2002), my boyfriend of five years left me for a married friend of ours. This song will always be my favorite SP song since we picked it for our first dance at our upcoming wedding. SP is the greatest band of all time, with a song for every emotion. Sirene, I only hope someone can feel this way about me again - you are fortunate beyond all your imaginings.
