Take Me Lyrics - Misguided Roses - Edwin Mccain

I pull my boots off, throw my weapons on the floor 

Cry my eyes out, in my private little war 

Well it seems I've been a soldier 

Heaven knows I've been no saint 

In my camouflage and armor, cold heart and grease paint 

To you this has no meaning the Armistice laid down 

The armies are all quiet and the guns don't make a sound 

'Cause you melted the steel walls, tore down the barbed wire 

Filled in the trenches, demanded a cease fire 

And now you're leaving, there's nothing I can do 

I want you to know you're gonna take me with you 

Well now three on a match is suicide in the foxhole of my mind 

And way off in the distance the air raid sirens whine 

And they sing your song of rescue to my tattered worn out shell 

You drag me to your safety from this my front line hell 

'Cause you melted the steel walls, tore down the barbed wire 

Filled in the trenches, demanded a cease fire 

And now you're leaving, there's nothing I can do 

I want you to know you're gonna take me with you 

The blood that was spilled in the heartache before 

Left road maps of scars that I never could ignore 

'Cause you melted the steel walls, tore down the barbed wire 

Filled in the trenches, demanded a cease fire 

And now you're leaving, there's nothing I can do 

I want you to know you're gonna take me with you
