Rick Springfield — Carry Me Away lyrics

Lyrics

Stop, my head is playing tricks again, won’t it ever stop
Baby, help me listen to my heart and then, take me to the top
I’m afraid of love, so afraid of love, and I’m scared to make it right
But I know tonight that it’s my last chance, my last shot
At real love, and I wanna take it Last chance, with a slow dance in the big time, and I wanna make it Tonight you’re gonna show me what love is and why
Between the sweatin' 'n' lovin' and the whisper and the cry
I’m so tired of all this shit that I feel, show me something real
Carry me away, baby carry me away
I’m in love with you tonight, feels so right
Carry me away, come on carry me away, I wanna be with you, what can I do?
You’ve got the power, you got the love
To take me to heaven or to leave me to heartbreak
I spent my life waitin' for the future and livin' in the past
Baby, show me love that I can hold on to, give me something that’ll last
I’m a total wreck, but I’m up to my neck
In this love I’m in, and I can’t do a thing
It’s a long shot, a far cry from a real world, me and you baby
Last chance at the slow dance, in the bright lights, and I think that maybe
Tonight it’s gonna happen, no need of tryin'
Between the sweatin' 'n' lovin' and the whisper and the cry
I’m so scared of all this feeling I feel, show me something real
You got the power, you got the love
To take me to heaven or to leave me to heartbreak
