Description:
Trying to keep it simple with just a couple of guitar tracks (OK, 3), one vocal track, bass and drums. Dedicated to my wife. After 40 years and 4 kids, she still looks great…

Lyrics:

Take Me There

I know a place where we could run away
And leave the nightmares far behind
Feel the passion for just one day
Live the life we couldn't find

Come on and take me there

She comes down and takes me through the wood
Sunlight filters through the leaves
We keep silent now, that’s understood
The sent of flowers fills the breeze

Why don’t you take me there
Come on and take me there
Come on and take me there
Come on and take me there

Take me where we’ll never be found
I’ll crawl with you like a snake on the ground
I swear to God I won’t make a sound
Cause this is where I know I belong

I feel the heat when I am close to you
Taste the salt upon your skin
I feel more love than I ever knew
I’m higher than I’ve ever been

Why don’t you take me there
Come on and take me there
Come on and take me there
Come on and take me there

Lovely song &mdash 01/31/05 - 10:17:48 AM
I really like the guitar sounds, and the way you've
combined them so they enhance one another. There's
a strong rocky riff and a vocal full of pathos, which is
a lovely contrast. Full of energy and vibrancy. It
sounds just a little trebly on my speakers ... the bass
doesn't sound very deep - but it might just be my
speakers. Great song. And a beautiful gift for your
wife.

A song for the right reason &mdash 01/31/05 - 09:25:07 PM
It is very cool that you dedicated this to your wife. I've
noticed you tend to write about things that are personal
or that you take personally (Raise Up Your Hearts and I
Lied being other examples).

Excellent production and best use of the word snake in a
love song I have ever heard! I look forward to your next
song!

Excellent Song, Jimmy &mdash 02/10/05 - 02:58:31 PM
Only thing I might suggest is to punch up the choruses a
bit ... double the vocal maybe, raise the guitar a bit ? Not
sure how best to add a little more umph.

Rockin song dude &mdash 02/14/05 - 12:24:03 PM
Like the guitars! Your voice is great here too...I hear some
background vocals in my head as that chorus is goin. 40
years is something to sing about and I'm sure glad you
posted it here. Good job.
