“I'm Taking You With Me” Song Lyrics

From the album, Five Score and Seven Years Ago, by Relient K

I made a habit
Of never making promises
That aren't easy to keep
And there you have it
But now I'm making one that is
To keep you here with me

Cause every second that goes by
I feel is just a waste of time
If I'm not with you

If home is where the heart is then my home is where you are
But its getting oh so hard to spend these days without my heart


So I'm taking you with me
Anywhere that I
Could ever want to be
For the rest of my life
I want you there with me
And if there ever comes a time
When I should have to leave
I hope you know that I
I'm taking you with me

And so I'm trying
To hold it all together and
And make it through the day
When I'm just dying
To drop it all and take your hand
So we can run away

From all the miles and the hours
That seem to endlessly devour
The time that I could be with you

Every second that goes by
Is one more second off my life
And it couldn't be more clear
I'm literally dying without you here

Relient K With Five Score And Seven Years Ago – Relient K’s fifth album in seven years and the follow up to 2004’s mmhmm, the band’s third consecutive Gold album – some are bound to ask, has the pop-punk band, ahem, matured a bit? Well, yes – sort of. While the new album isn’t chockfull of their characteristic puns and concludes with an 11-minute, 115-track tour de force entitled “Deathbed,” rest assured, Relient K has not lost its quirky sense of humor.
