Where You Take Me

Let the sun turn into earth
and earth all turn to ice;
the seasons stop right in their tracks
and day turn into night.
I will be untouchable,
I will feel no pain.

’Cause I’ve had you,
I’ve had you.

Do you see that star?
Way up there is where I place you.
We have been so far.
Way up there is where you take me.

– From “I’ve Had You”
by Jenny Morris and Paul Kelly
(from Jenny Morris’ 1991 album Honeychild)
