Take Me Away

I've gotta get out of here
Out of this town where I don't belong
So take me, Lord, to the blessed ocean
For when I'm there, nothing is wrong

I've got to separate myself
From my world of mistakes
I have to see the ocean
I've got to make my escape

So take me away, Lord
To the ocean so blue
Take me away, Lord
To a place that is new
Take me away, Lord
To a beautiful escape
Take me away, Lord
From all my mistakes

This hellhole, this small town
Is not where I should be
So take me to the ocean
Where I am truly free

Free to be myself
Free to be alive
Free to be unique
For all the rest of time

So take me away, Lord
To the ocean so blue
Take me away, Lord
To a place that is new
Take me away, Lord
To a beautiful escape
Take me away, Lord
From all my mistakes

Introduce me, please
To some hot surfer dudes
Take my mind off of HIM
And fix it on someone new

I'm convinced there are no worthy guys left
So, beach, please prove me wrong
Give me a hot surfer to be my companion
Until the right boy comes along

So take me away, Lord
To the ocean so blue
Take me away, Lord
To a place that is new
Take me away, Lord
To a beautiful escape
Take me away, Lord
From all my mistakes

I messed up here
I know I did
So take me to the sea
So I can forget

Take me to a place
Where the sun always shines
And keep me there
'Till the end of time

So take me away, Lord
To the ocean so blue
Take me away, Lord
To a place that is new
Take me away, Lord
To a beautiful escape
Take me away, Lord
From all my mistakes

Take me away

Third song in two days. What do you think?

    This is reall, really good also. Going away from you problems wont help much, they'll just find you again eventualy. You just have to face whatever mess ups or wrong turns there are, and work past them so you can get back on the happy road of life. Pray for strenght to face and fix your problems. Thats the only way for them to really god away, or for you to get away from them... This is a VERY good song!!!

      Thanks! You're right, but in the song I meant only temporarily--I know they won't go away if I ignore them, but they will seem less important.
