Take It with Me

Phone's off the hook, no one knows where we are

It's a long time since I drank champagne

The ocean is blue, as blue as your eyes

I'm gonna take it with me when I go

Old long since gone, now way back when

We lived in Coney Island

There ain't no good thing ever dies

I'm gonna take it with me when I go

Far far away a train whistle blows

Wherever you're goin', wherever you've been

Waving goodbye at the end of the day

You're up and you're over and you're far away

Always for you and forever yours

It felt just like the old days

We fell asleep on Beulah's porch

I'm gonna take it with me when I go

All broken-down by the side of the road

I was never more alive or alone

I've worn the faces off all the cards

I'm gonna take it with me when I go

The children are playing at the end of the day

Strangers are singing on our lawn

It's got to be more than flesh and bone

All that you've loved is all you own

In a land, there's a town

And in that town, there's a house

And in that house, there's a woman

And in that woman, there's a heart I love

I'm gonna take it with me when I go

I'm gonna take it with me when I go
