early in my life, went on a trip to escape my mind
i saw you at the beach that night
knew you'd wanna get high
i still tell all the stories to my friends at work
they ask me where you are but i don't know for sure
so can we meet again and try to make it work or at least
come take me back for the night
we'll go around the world and show them how we used to love
we'll revive those two kids with no control
pretending they survived in the afterglow
singing oh oh oh
i'll be alright if i grab onto you and kiss you like you're mine tonight
will you take me back for the night
come into my house
take off your jacket and help yourself
the coffee is on the kitchen floor
just how we drank it before
i'll answer all your questions like i know you well
i must admit until today i've gone through hell
but maybe if i confess how i always felt, you'd like to
come take me back for the night
we'll go around the world and show them how we used to love
we'll revive those two kids with no control
pretending they survived in the afterglow
singing oh oh oh
i'll be alright if i grab onto you and kiss you like you're mine tonight
but don't be afraid when i leave your side
cos all we ever needed was one more time
so will you take me back for the night
i know we'll never go back into time
believe for me tonight
come take me back for the night
we'll go around the world and show them how we used to love
we'll revive those two kids with no control
pretending they survived in the afterglow
singing oh oh oh
i'll be alright if i grab onto you and kiss you like you're mine tonight
but don't be afraid when i leave your side
cos all we ever needed was one more time
so will you take me back for the night
