"I'll Take You There" adalah sebuah lagu yang menyentuh hati dari David Bowie yang mengeksplorasi tema identitas dan pelarian. Dirilis pada tanggal 1 Mei, lagu ini mengatur suasana muram dan misterius saat dua tokoh, Sophie dan Lev, melarikan diri dari kenyataan yang menindas. Sosok yang tidak disebutkan namanya menawarkan keselamatan dan pelarian, tetapi dengan harga sendiri yang harus dibayar. Lirik lagu yang kuat dan penuh teka-teki mengundang pendengar untuk merenungkan pertanyaan tentang masa depan, identitas, dan pencarian makna dalam dunia yang penuh ketidakpastian.
I'll Take You There Lyrics
David Bowie
Today, today is the 1st of May
Everything around us
Everything a lie
Your hearts beating fast
As we race through the dark
Past the really good people
Who do what they're told
What will be my name
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
Who will I become
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
Sophie and Lev are running away
These are the days
The days of gloom
Lev can't smile and Sophie can't sing
A mile to the future
Where tomorrow is king
What will be my name
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
Who will I become
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
I don't need to know
Know where you are
Only that you are
Safe in this world
Then I'll be content
Get on with my life
Eat, drink and sleep
Look up at the stars
What will be my name
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
Who will I become
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
Everything around us
Everything a lie
Your hearts beating fast
As we race through the dark
Past the really good people
Who do what they're told
What will be my name
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
Who will I become
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
Sophie and Lev are running away
These are the days
The days of gloom
Lev can't smile and Sophie can't sing
A mile to the future
Where tomorrow is king
What will be my name
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
Who will I become
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
I don't need to know
Know where you are
Only that you are
Safe in this world
Then I'll be content
Get on with my life
Eat, drink and sleep
Look up at the stars
What will be my name
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
Who will I become
In the USA?
Hold my hand and
I'll take you there
