Take Me Up

©1991 Michael D. Renneker

Some say love is filled with pain

Cloudy skies and pouring rain

But I say love’s a harbor in the storm

Some look for love like they look for style

All wrapped up in a pearly white smile

But skin deep beauty only goes so far

chorus

But darling you take me up

Up to where we live, to where we love

Take me up

Up to where the road is clear

The inner frontier

Some say life’s a losing game

Pointing fingers, shifting blame

But I say life’s a story to be told

Some choose to go it all alone

In a house that never becomes a home

But we can build a future with our love

Chorus

There’s a chance to grow

Around every turn

We’ll read the signs, we’ll take our time

But you and me

We’re gonna walk

Chorus
