Maximo Park Take Me Home Lyrics

And the moon is
hidden tonight,
By a swab of cotton
sodden with light.
(Take me home)

And this is our street corner
Where no-one else has kissed-goodnight
(No-one else)
And this is sacred ground
Whenever you're around.

Take me home
I want you.

There'll be no postponing
Any of our emotions tonight.

I fell asleep with the phone in my hand
You're getting accustomed to a fallible man.
(Take my home)
Some gentlemen prefer brunettes
But that's an arbitrary turn of events.
(Take me home)
I know you're gonna leave
So grant me my reprieve!

Take me home
