please carry me
carry me
lie there please
lie there quietly
it feels like needles
on your simple eye
thinking your special
saying your special
you never knew, the world you saw through
the eyes of a stranger
dark figured stranger
who told of danger
that was just another shadowed lie
{chourus} Take it from me, take it from a friend
you thought your life would never depend
upon the kindness of a stranger
to pull you out of your own danger
I see you going down like a ship across the room
falling apart to be mopped up by a broom
when I sleep I hear your screaming in the night
but it still doesn't wake me up inside
It's a downpoar, it's a torrent
I can't stand alone, against the current
to cross the threshhold, to tear the door down
to live inside you, to burn the archway to the ground
it's a corner, not a window
and all the time oooooooooooh
I won't regret no
I won't regret
It's been to long to close up now
