Cover art for Take Me Away lyrics by Fefe Dobson

I was waiting all my life to know you - It sure felt that way when I was coming up with this interpretation for the very first time; It's like, I had wanted a boyfriend for as long as I could remember.

All about you - The more time I spent with him, the more I wanted to get to know him.

And now, I'm staring in your eyes in sheer fear - A part of me was afraid to communicate with him that I was catching romantic feelings. I guess the reason why I was as scared as I was could have been due to him potentially feelings the same way as I was feeling about him (which it turns out, he did!). Also, opening up means being vulnerable and facing the music when it's dire.

I'm all about you - Tell me more about you!

And in our minds it comes so easily - It seemed so simple whenever we were interacting together as friends, but who could forget...

But there's a feeling coming over me - All of the nausea, anxiety and fear that weighs you down, making it hard to focus your attention on that special someone in your life?!

I wanna show you but there's nowhere we can really be free - I found it hard to connect with him because of how far away he lived from me.

Everybody's watchin' - Let's not forget you never know when your family is listening in on your private conversations with your friends!

Wouldn't it be good if we could be together? - It was; it really was. We had our own fairy tale romance.

Take me away - Sweep me off my feet (he did!)

Take me far away from here - As long as we were spending time together, we were doing perfectly fine.

I will run with you - Almost like in Romeo and Juliet!

Don't be afraid - I realize now that it was okay to have all of the fears in the back of my mind because it meant I cared a lot about him and wanted things to work out, which they did for a while.

Navigate and I will steer - I was really hoping he would make the first move by courting me and I guess he kind of did, but I was the first person to open up about my feelings for him.

Into the sun, we will run - We had our own forbidden romance!

I try to remember when I was just a child - I'll admit, I do think back to my childhood every now and again, back when everything was simple.

In my room - I spend the majority of my time alone in my room.

My imagination used to run wild - Oh my goodness! I used to come up with hundreds of different scenarios back when I was a child, usually related to love.

But I never knew - There's a lot of things that you don't know when you're a kid, so you end up coming up with a story in the back of your mind to have a better understanding about the things you know nothing about at that age.

That nothing's ever as it seems to be - Everyone has a different perspective on things, so you never know what is going on in the back if their minds unless you ask them. A lot of people act like they are okay when deep down inside, they aren't. They just act like they're okay to keep the peace but deep down inside they're screaming to be set free.

When a dream collides with a reality - It's like in Gilmore Girls when Luke and Lorelai FINALLY get together, but then...

It should be easy when two people love each other to me - The media makes love and relationships look so easy when really, they aren't easy at all.

Everybody's talking - Shifting gears back to Gilmore Girls for a second, everyone has an opinion on everything and they often put their cents in, even though you never asked them for their opinion.

Wouldn't it be good if they would understand us? - I can imagine this must have been what Like and Lorelai were thinking after the whole town found out they were together.
