Anywhere Lord Take Me

Walkin around in this huge town Looking into the eyes of a bunch of empty faces.... Same old routine on a daily basis... Wanting to have fun but there's no one around. The truth comes out in the silence.... So sick of this city and all the senseless violence... Looking for a connection, Continually.... nothing but rejection. I'm so sick of this place.... Lord, take me anywhere.... Please take me anywhere. Take me far, far away from here.... God, take me anywhere.... I simply do not care. Take me to a place where I will shed no tears. So what's a man to do? There's gotta be more to life than this... The thought of cruisin through Philly.... Despite it being oh so chilly. The thought of flying to Boston.... Atlanta.... Miami.... Meeting that sexy lady.... Holding her hand.... Kissing her lips. The thought of it is so grand.... I'm over this place.... Over the same old sh** It's time to make my dreams come true. I know I've got to find a way, Find a place where no one knows my name.... And I can begin my life anew.... Lord, take me anywhere. Please take me anywhere.... Anywhere far away from here. God, take me anywhere.... Take me anywhere.... I don't care.... Just take me anywhere.... away from here.
