Take Me Away

I'd love to escape

Calgon, take me away

to a warm, secret place

a bright, brand-new day

The sun in the sky

and its glow on my face

Where even if, you don't try

there's a smile on your face

The mornings are tender

the stress is at bay

Some music playing on fender

stirring your body to sway

Lost in the music

time can take some time off

Where the melody 's sick

a chilled glass and Smirnoff

Or whatever you crave

leave the judgement at the door

It's your chance, misbehave

that's what daydreams are for

So, whatever, name your poison

it's your moment to shine

Come, escape from your prison

and I'll escape mine
