Sung By Don Henley


I had a good life
Before you came
I had my friends and my freedom
I had my name
Still there was sorrow and emptiness
til you made me glad
Oh, in this love I found strength I never knew I had

And this love
Is like nothing I have ever known
Take my hand, love
I'm taking you home
Taking you home

There were days, lonely days
When the world, wouldn't throw me a crumb, no no
But I kept on believing
That this day would come

And this love
Is like nothing I have ever known, no no baby
Take my hand love
I'm taking you home
I'm taking you, home
Where we can be with the ones who really care
Home, where we can grow together
Keep you in, my heart forever

Oh and this love
Is like nothing I have ever known, oh no no baby
Take my hand love
I'm taking you home

Oh this love
Is like nothing I have ever known, no no baby
Take my hand
I'm taking you home
I'm taking you, home
Yes I am, mm, mm, mm, hey baby, hey baby
Taking you home

I'm taking you home baby
I'm taking you home.



I arrived at one of my baby showers with this song playing in the background.
And then given the words typed and framed for me.
I loved this song the very first time that I heard it and I knew it would be one of many to come
to share with my baby girl.
And here I am taking her home.
