Another one from the archives. I wrote this as a valentine to my sweetheart that year, and for some reason she wasn't all that impressed. Oh well.

I thought I'd throw it to the wolves. 😇

~Carried away~


Church bells call the tune,
ring across the afternoon,
drifting into you,
the angels are hushed where you sleep-

I won't let them in,
keep you for myself again,
your sun to warm my skin,
we fade our way into the stars-

carried away,
carried away-

born into this bond,
so I don't wander endlessly,
and feel like something's wrong,
without you, I wouldn't know-

carried away,
all of the world carried on,
carried away,
all of the world carried on,
so we stay here as long as we can,
carried away-

wind chimes call the tune,
sleeping through the afternoon,
while all of the world carried on,
carried away-
