Lyrics Melissa Etheridge

Melissa Etheridge

Take My Number

Do you mind if I sit down next to you?

Yeah, I remember you from school

You seem to have a good heart

Way back then, you were gonna make it big

But it's divorce, now with a couple kids

That brings you back to these parts

Everybody stumbles

Everybody hits the ground

No use running scared

When those changes come around

Cause you don't know what might

Be waiting for you tonight

You really shouldn't drive

You've had too much to drink

You shouldn't be alone

Where all you're gonna do is think

So take my number

Or I can take you home

We can find a cup of coffee

We can sit all night and talk

There's a diner always open

Just around the block

So take my number

Or I can take you home

All those dreams

That were gonna set us free

What did we ever know at 23

About what we really wanted?

Everybody's got a fire

That's always gonna burn

No way to put it out

All we ever do is learn

And you don't know what might

Be waiting for you tonight

Oh, you really shouldn't drive

You've had too much to drink

You shouldn't be alone

Where all you're gonna do is think

So take my number

Or I can take you home, yeah

We can find a cup of coffee

We can sit all night and talk

There's a diner always open

Just around the block

So take my number

Or I can take you home

Take you home

Take you home

Take you home

I can take you home

Do you mind if I sit down next to you?

Well, I remember you from school

You seem to have a real good heart

Oh, you really shouldn't drive

You've had too much to drink

You shouldn't be alone

Where all you're gonna do is think

So take my number

Or I can take you home

We can find a cup of coffee

We can sit all night and talk

There's a diner always open

Just around the block

So take my number

Or I can take you home

Take my number

Or I can take you home
