[Chorus]
I'm taking you home tonight
I want to make sure that you're alright
Looks like a cold, cold wind is blowing in
I'm taking you home tonight

[Verse 1]
Like a train that's left the tracks
The world is falling apart
I'd gladly help to put it back
But tell me where to start

[Chorus]
I'm taking you home (yeah!) tonight
I want to make sure that you're alright
Well, the coat you're wearing's way too thin
I'm taking you home tonight

[Verse 2]
I read the bad news everyday
It's getting harder to cry
Sometimes I'd like to look away
But I can't close my eyes

[Chorus]
I'm taking you home (yeah!) tonight
I want to make sure that you're alright
Won't you notify my next of kin?
I'm taking you home tonight
[Bridge]
Say yes tonight
Say yes if my suggestion is right
Say yes to me
If that's the way you want it to be

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm taking you home (yeah!) tonight
I want to make sure that you're alright
Looks like a cold, cold wind is blowing in
I'm taking you home tonight

[Verse 3]
Well, life goes by at such a pace
The troubles seem to increase
I know that we can find a place
Where we can get some peace

[Chorus]
I'm taking you home (yeah!) tonight
I want to make sure that you're alright
Looks like a cold, cold wind is blowing in
I'm taking you home tonight

[Bridge]
So say yes tonight
Say yes if my suggestion is right
Say yes to me
If that's the way you want it to be
[Outro]
Well, I'm taking you home (home!) tonight
I want to make sure that you're alright
They say a cold, cold wind is blowing in
The coat you're wearing's way too thin
Notify my next of kin
I'm taking you home tonight
