Take Me Anywhere
Faces of Humanity
“In this world of ordinary singers and underrated treasures, I’m glad there is Marcus Goldhaber.”
-Nora McArthy, Jazz Inside
Take me to a movie I don’t want to see, take me anywhere at all, but just don’t let me be. Let’s go riding horses in the cool, cool rain. As long as you are takin’ me, you won’t hear me complain. ‘Cause I just want you to take me out with you, baby.
Any week day evening when I’m all worn out, wake me up and shake me up and take me all about. I just get so dizzy when you hold my hand. I’m falling up and floating down, I don’t care where I land. So stop forsaking me and start taking me, baby.
Now I could take myself out for some fun, but I’m so tired of flirting with everyone. When I saw you, I felt strange and now I don’t know what to do with all this change.
If you think I’m crazy, rest assured it’s true. Your lips, your skin and everything within, you don’t know what you do.
I have trouble breathing when you walk on by, but when you stop and look at me, I feel like I can fly up and down the avenue, I just want to be with you.
So, take me anywhere, as long as you are there. Of all around and above, it’s you that I love.
So baby, take me..
I meet a girl, my heart is free,
then I’m not sure if she’s for me.
Oh how I wish I wasn’t constantly in the oeuvre of the in-between…
I call her up to say hello,
what happens next, well I don’t know.
This is a case that I can’t seem to face, in the oeuvre of the in-between…
Now if my heart could make its mind up,
then I would choose that special one.
But every time I do, I wind up with a thousand questions,
answers for which I have none.
So, I will stay alone and free,
away from pain and mystery,
until I find the girl who’ll live with me in the oeuvre of the in-between.
Life may be golden, life may be grand,
You make the rules of the game.
When you are old and you don't understand
Why nobody's holdin' your little hand,
Just take a deep breath and go for a walk.
You may be gloomy when you're alone
And there's no kiss on your cheek.
When you are blue and wanna go home
And sit in a room that you feel is your own,
Just take a deep breath and go for a walk.
'Cause when you're walkin', your mind can clear
out all of those thoughts stuck in your head.
Everyone's talkin' 'bout the troubles we face in the
world. Now life can be sweet, just follow your feet.
Maybe one day we'll all gather 'round and
Change the rules of the game. Hunger and Aids
would never be found in a world without hate,
what a beautiful sound. Just take a deep
breath and go for a walk.
I wanna say something I've never said, but I get so nervous -
You're beautiful, you know that?
Words take their leave of me, I'm left with none.
My mouth is ready -
You're beautiful, you know that?
I used to speak every time my heart would beat,
But your eyes keep my words deep inside.
And I wanna say something, I don't know what.
I've never felt this quivering -
You're beautiful, you know that?
If you could tell me what is going on, I'd gladly
stop saying -
You're beautiful, you know that?
You have a way with the words that I'm trying to say,
Still I can't seem to get everything out.
Don't look at me and perhaps I'll get this right.
I feel so foolish -
You're beautiful, you know that...
When it comes to love I'm never smart.
There is not a soul I trust, so please don't start.
I will never love again; I must defend my heart,
But when I look at you, I fall apart.
There are many voices in my mind
Telling me exactly what I need to find.
I just keep refusing and I'm loosing all the time,
But when I look at you, everything's fine.
I don't want to feel like this, but now it's much too late.
In your eyes, lies my fate.
You unlock the feeling that I'd buried far away
With each word you say.
I'm afraid you'll sweep me off my feet
And then I'll be destined only to repeat
All the pain I've felt before,
A lover scorned and free, that's me.
Tonight a simple melody appeared to me,
I thought it was the remedy for what ailed me,
But it was not the remedy for this apparent felony
called love.
I get myself in trouble with each girl I call,
I'm certain it's from flirtin' all around the hall.
I think I need some medicine cause when the girls'say let us in , I fall.
My symptoms are the worst by far,
I'm burning with a fever.
And I'm afraid of the married life,
For what if I can't leave her?
And so I'll sing this melody each night and day.
I find it helps remind the girls to stay away.
For I've done so much lusting that there's no more room for trusting in love.
I promise that I'll change my life
And completely rearrange my life,
If you'll commit this felony with me.
I’m feeling so excited like the day that we first met. My thoughts can’t find a single word and this is how I always get. A bird must fly and a flower grow and so my life should be. Goodbye to all my insecurity.
My love for you is deeper than the root of any tree; And that’s why it’s so challenging for me to tell you honestly, exactly what I’m feeling and why I’m feeling it today. My mind will not allow my heart to pay.
And I’m afraid I’ll lose you and I’m afraid I’ll lose me. I’m looking for a way for you to stay and give me the space to be free.
Last night I stayed awake so I could watch you fall asleep. I didn’t want to make a sound, but I couldn’t stop my heart from beating up and down inside my chest and I thought it would burst through... until you turned and whispered I love you.
Sometimes the words I want to say escape my lips and so instead of speaking I retreat into another kiss. And just when I’ve said everything and I’m sure you have no clue, you pull away and tell me that you love me too.
Now tell me how does she know and tell me how does she feel? When after everything I’ve never said, she knows everything inside that’s real
