Merhaba!

I understand all of the parts of speech here, but do not understand how the meaning changes. Not being able to figure this out is driving me absolutely crazy:

Uzak tuttu beni (This one makes perfect sense to me)
Uzak tuttu bana (But what about this one?)

FYI: This is from chorus of Tarkan's song "Uzak"

Çok teşekkürler!

Merhaba

here are the correct lyrics first

Uzak - Tarkan



Karnı tokken sızlanandan,
Zevk sürerken sıkılandan,
El içinde ağlayandan, uzak tutun beni, uzak!
Uzak tutun bana uzak, uzak...

Dost lafından gocunandan,
Kuşkusuyla buz tutandan,
Düşmanına dost durandan, uzak tutun beni, uzak!
Uzak tutun bana uzak, uzak...

Sevabını anlatandan,
Günahına kulp takandan,
Düşmanına dost durandan, uzak tutun beni, uzak!
Uzak tutun bana uzak, uzak...

Suretiyle kandırandan,
Şeytanıyla yarışandan,
Aynalardan kovulandan, uzak tutun beni, uzak!
Uzak tutun bana, uzak...


so uzak tutun beni means, take me away

uzak tutun bana means hold it away to me

close meanings
hope it helps..
