Carry Me Home
Intoxicating Moments: Carry Me Home's Love Confusion
Lyrics
Running into you is the strangest thing
Encountering you is unexpected and unusual
I've never noticed how you look at me
I never realized the way you gaze at me
I feel so funny asking "how you've been?"
Awkwardly asking about your well-being feels strange
I hear you're living in the city
Heard you're residing in the city
Growing up is really make believe
Adulthood seems like a fiction
They never told us nineteen eighty-three
No one informed us about the year 1983
These 16mm memories
Nostalgic memories captured on 16mm film
Have got us falling in slow motion
Those memories are causing us to fall in slow motion
You make me feel like I've had too much to drink
Your presence makes me feel intoxicated
The room is spinning and I trip on my feet
The environment is dizzying, and I stumble
I'm seeing double saying things I don't mean
I'm seeing double and uttering unintended words
Just had a taste, I'm already wasted
Just a sip, and I'm already inebriated
And if I needed would you carry me home?
Asking if you would carry me home if needed
You know I don't really care where we go
Indifferent about the destination, as long as we're together
And in the morning under sheets and shadows
In the morning, amid intimacy and secrecy
I think I love you, but what do I know?
Expressing love, uncertain of its depth
You make me feel like I've had too much to drink
Reiterating the intoxicating effect of your presence
The room is spinning and I trip on my feet
The world seems to spin, causing imbalance
I'm seeing double saying things I don't mean
Experiencing confusion and saying unintended things
Just had a taste, I'm already wasted
Even with a brief encounter, I feel wasted
And if I needed would you carry me home?
Repeating the question of being carried home if needed
You know I don't really care where we go
Emphasizing the lack of concern about the destination
And in the morning under sheets and shadows
In the morning, in the realm of intimacy and secrecy
I think I love you, but what do I know?
Expressing uncertain love once again
And I've been sitting second guessing all alone
Reflecting on uncertainties while alone
I guess you know you'll never find it if you want it
Suggesting that what you seek may elude you
And you've been standing right in front all along
Realizing you've been in front of me all along
Yeah you've been standing right in front of me all along
Acknowledging your continuous presence
And if I needed would you carry me home?
Reiterating the question of being carried home
You know I don't really care where we go
Remaining indifferent to the destination
And in the morning under sheets and shadows
In the morning, surrounded by intimacy and secrecy
I think I love you
Expressing love with lingering uncertainty
And if I needed would you carry me home?
Repeating the question of being carried home if needed
You know I don't really care where we go
Emphasizing the indifference to the destination
And in the morning under sheets and shadows
In the morning, concealed in sheets and shadows
I think I love you, but what the hell do I know?
Repeating the expression of love with added uncertainty
Carry me, carry me
Concluding with a plea to be carried home
Carry me, carry me home
Reiterating the plea to be carried home
