Take Me Away
by: Marvin PriestDon't know who you are, but you're breaking hearts
I'm watching you, the way that you move
And all I wanna know is making you glow
Cause no other girl comes close
But you know you got me started
Don't make me wait too long
Any day you want I got it
Turn it up and turn it on
C'mon let's get it started
Girl you got one more song
Then you're alone with me and I'll take you home
Take me away, away, away you turn me on
Take me away, away, away I'm burning up because you
The way you're moving so, the way you work it so,
You know your body's so, I'm not afraid to get burned.
You make me so, the way you shake it so,
We're on fire so, I'm not afraid to get burned
Get burned [x3]
I'm not afraid to get burned
So, so, so
I'm not afraid to get burned
You know you can't lie, that look in your eyes
Is telling me you, wanna get with me too
Been waiting all night, go with it don't fight
You know what to do, do it right
Girl you know you got me started
Don't make me wait too long
Any day you want I got it
Turn it up and turn it on
C'mon let's get it started
Girl you got one more song
Then you're alone with me and I'll take you home
Take me away, away, away, you turn me on
Take me away, away, away, I'm burning up because you
The way you're moving so, the way you work it so,
You know your body's so, I'm not afraid to get burned.
You make me so, the way you shake it so,
We're on fire so, I'm not afraid to get burned
Get burned [x3]
I'm not afraid to get burned
So, so, so
I'm not afraid to get burned
Oh what a girl, oh what a freak
Have to get your lovin' seven days of the week
And it's all you and me, (hey) so complete
See I'm in so deep, [?]
Give me [?], come show it out
Take me away, away, away, you turn me on
Take me away, away, away, I'm burning up because you
The way you're moving so, the way you work it so,
You know your body's so, I'm not afraid to get burned.
You make me so, the way you shake it so,
We're on fire so, I'm not afraid to get burned
The way you're moving so, the way you work it so,
You know your body's so, I'm not afraid to get burned.
You make me so, the way you shake it so,
