Take me on

You've been out all night,
That's right,
Underneath your black umbrella,
Pales around the lights so bright,
Like little angels in the sky,
But they don't fly,
You walk by,
As if the street,
I'm hoping that our eyes might meet,
Your heart's too blind to see me,
That's the price to be lonely.

If you want really love
You think that you're tough enough,
Take me on,
Take me on,
You wanna be turned around,
You wanna touch higher ground,
For the love that you've been missin',
You think that you're not strong,
Take me on.

In a small cafe,
All day,
Staring in a cup of coffee,
Time just slips away,
Smoking your last cigarette,
With no regrets,
I say hello,
You look away,
But there's a smile behind your face,
There's something more between us,
But your hearts too scared to stay. There's a face in every window,
A light goes out,
Someone's alone,
When they wake up in the morning,
To another day,
Another chance gone.

If you want really love,
You think that you're tough enough,
Take me on,
Take me on,
You wanna be turned around,
You wanna touch higher ground,
For the love that you've been missin',
You think that you're not strong,
Take me on...
