Take Me Away

* Take me away to January
I'm done with this year
I'm tired of everyone here
I just need some time alone
Before I'm ready to come back home *

# There's got to be somewhere else out there for me
I could feel it in my heart the day I started to dream
There's more than this Midwestern town...
I can't let this place keep me down

So I tell myself,
"There's a girl out on the coast of California.
There's a world out there and it's waiting for you."
And I can hear it calling my name tonight #

Take me away
I need the sand and the waves
The sunset, and let's not forget those warm autumn days
I just need to get out of here
And visit the coast just to see her

Repeat #

("There's a girl out on the coast of California.
There's a world out there and it's waiting for you."
And I can hear it calling my name tonight)

Repeat *
