Carried Away

[Verse 1]

Since my heart is golden, I've got sense to hold in

Tempted just to make an ugly scene

No, I'm not as proper, my money's in copper

Ripped down from the brownstones to the street

[Pre-Chorus]

Listen, I'm your friend, don't quote me, but not a friend worth noting

Yes, please don't ever note me as your friend

Who says we have cold hearts? Acting out our old parts

Let's perform our favorite little scene, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]

I get carried away

Carried away from you

And I'm hoping and I'm praying

'Cause I'm sorry, sorry about that

Sorry about things that I said

Always let it get to my head

[Verse 2]

Oh, a European, once again with feeling

Higher education, making sense

Justify your thesis, certain that you need this

Tell me what your point is in defense

[Pre-Chorus]

Listen, I don't really know you and I don't think I want to

But I think I can fake it if you can

And let's agree there's no need, no more talk of money

Let's just keep pretending to be friends, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]

I get carried away

Carried away from you

And I'm hoping and I'm praying

'Cause I'm sorry, sorry about that

Sorry about the things that I said

Always let it get to my head

I get carried away

Carried away from you

And I'm hoping and I'm praying

'Cause I'm sorry, sorry about that

Sorry about the things that I said

Always let it get to my head

[Bridge]

Wake up in the morning

Wake up in the evening

Wake up when you want to

'Cause no one's really watching

Well, she'll have something to say about it

But we all have problems

We're all having problems

And we've all got something to say

[Chorus]

I get carried away

Carried away from you

And I'm hoping and I'm praying

'Cause I'm sorry, sorry about that

Sorry about things that I said

Always let it get to my head

I get carried away

Carried away from you

And I'm hoping and I'm praying

'Cause I'm sorry, sorry about that

Sorry about the things that I said

Always let it get to my head
