Whisper softly don't bring me down don't bring me to my knees

I've been holdin' on by fingertips just tell me are you pleased
When I'm alone and don't know where to go or where to turn
You've done this before I guess that I will never learn

I've been taken away from everything I know and love
I just want to explain how I've been, what I've been thinking of

A little closer so you can hear what I have got to say
I don't want to have to lose it all just to get my way
Cause then you've won and I know that I'm not who I used to be
I don't want you claws to dig dip down, deep inside of me

I've been taken away from everything I know and love
I just want to explain how I've been, what I've been thinking of

I've been taken away from everything I know and love
I just want to explain how I've been, what I've been thinking of

I've been, I've been, I've been Taken Away
I just, I just, I just want to explain
I'm lost and I can't find my way
I tried so hard to get away
When you get close I get Taken Away
