Scott Emerick – I Can't Take You Anywhere lyrics

You've been a part of my life, so very long
It's hard for me to believe sometimes, you're really gone
I tuck your memory away in my special hiding place
Just hoping no one can tell by the look on my face

That you're still in my heart
Always on my mind
A part of my everyday

Like just last night, I went out for a bite
And I tried to have fun with all my might
But even the laughter, it wasn't much of a break
'Cause right in the middle of my strawberry shake

Bobby Joe walked in with a couple of friends
And said, "Hey man, have you seen her at all
Like, where's she been? "

And it, struck a nerve and it hit a vein
You'd think from all the tears I cried
And this broken-hearted pain
I wouldn't have to carry you around with me

But it seems like everywhere I go
There's somebody wants to know
Where you've been and are you comin' back again?
I swear, I can't take you anywhere

So I left all alone. I just headed on home
As I listened to the messages on my telephone
There was one from my sister and one from an old friend
"Hey man, I drove by your house tonight, dude, but, er, you wasn't in"

Just checkin' up on you boy
I hope you're doin' alright
Oh, by the way man, I seen her last night

And it, struck a nerve, and it, hit a vein
You'd think from all the tears I cried
And this broken-hearted pain
I wouldn't have to carry you around with me

But it seems like everywhere I go
There's somebody wants to know
Where you've been and are you comin' back again?
I swear, I can't take you anywhere

Oh, baby, I swear, I can't take you anywhere
No, no, no, no, no, I can't take you anywhere, baby
