Take It With Me - JJ Heller

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

Ain’t no good thing ever dies

I’m gonna take it with me when I go

Far far away

The 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 Beaula’s porch

I’m gonna take it with me when I go

Children are playing

At the end of the day

Strangers are singing on our lawn

There’s got to be more than flesh and bone

All that you 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 baby

And in that baby 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
