Please Take Me Home Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tom DeLonge]
Oh no, it happened again
She's cool, she's hot, she's my friend
I'd drive for hours, it's so
You leave me nowhere to go

[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
She's unstoppable, unpredictable
I'm so jaded, calculated wrong

[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
Please take me home
Too late, it's gone
I bet you're sad
This is the best time we ever had

[Verse 2: Tom DeLonge]
I hope, hope that it lasts
Give in, forget the past
Be strong when things fall apart
Honest, this breaks my heart

[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
She's unstoppable, unpredictable
I'm so jaded, calculated wrong
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
Please take me home
Too late, it's gone
I bet you're sad
This is the best time we ever had

[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
Please take me home
Too late, it's gone
I bet you're sad
This is the best time we ever had

[Bridge: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
Why did we have to go date?
It's too easy to complicate
Be strong when things fall apart (Be strong when things fall apart)
Honest, this breaks my heart (It's so hard)
Let's go!

[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
Please take me home
Too late, it's gone
I bet you're sad
This is the best time we ever had

[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
Please take me home
Too late, it's gone
I bet you're sad
This is the best time we ever had

What did blink-182 say about "Please Take Me Home"?
Genius Answer

In the official program for the band’s 2001 TOYPAJ tour, Tom wrote:

Every boy falls in love every once in awhile with a friend of theirs. A girlfried. Not a dude friend. Unless of course, you like dudes, and that’s fine too. Anyway, this song is crazy influenced by one of my favorite bands, Fugazi. This is one of my top fav songs on the record. I think it sounds so cool, it just has a cool groove to it. Next record will leave more songs like this and STFTK. These songs are fun to play. Oh yeah, girls take hearts and eat them, beware dudes.
