Youâre fed up, you canât do it
Close your eyes and Iâll talk you through it
Itâs too bad that your plan got red-tagged
Youâre leaving home with your heart in a handbag
I donât know where they found you
But I know theyâd be lost without you
Sanding at the gate with a tear in their eye
As they wave goodbye
Youâre tied up, you canât make it
Take your time âcause you canât replace it
You left home with a pack of old clothes
You got stuck, thatâs how this story goes
They clipped your wings and left you
They locked the door and let you pull yourself apart with silent grief
But I could be
Something special, something sane
Something used, something plain
I could take you away, I could take you away
Take my hand, donât be shy
Please donât beg, please donât cry
I could take you away, I could take you away tonight
I can tell by the look in your eyes that you need saving
And I can tell by the scars on your feet that your way needs paving
