Carry Me Over - Dan Matz

Never been told my prayers would be answered Wherever I go I see you around Never been told that something that beautiful Would bring me up to let me down Waiting up on the roof, waiting up in the rain Just to catch a glimpse of your face Even when you're around Still I'm out of sight, out of sound In your world I'm out of place Carry me over, carry me over Carry me over now Carry me over, carry me over Carry me over now You're like a ghost that I can't let go You follow every step that I take Never thought someone could be too close to you Now across the street is miles away And now I might as well be the man in the moon I am watching but you don't seem aware And I won't be around I'll be out of sight, out of sound Someone's gonna wait somewhere Carry me over, carry me over Carry me over now Carry me over, carry me over Carry me over now Carry me over, carry me over Carry me over now Carry me over, carry me over Carry me over now Somebody carry me over, carry me over Carry me over now Carry me over, carry me over Carry me over now Carry me over now

No more barricades, slowly diffusing I'll be leaving now, nobody's losing If you could play your part, stay in resistance Every fault would fade into the distance Run if you like All the mistakes that you left behind Hold me down You can't deny and I can't deny Open your eyes I'll look away and you come around To build your words High enough to carry you over And I never would've given you up Never would've given you up, you up If you only hadn't given me up Only hadn't given me up, me up And I never would've given you up Never would've given you up, you up If you only hadn't given me up Only hadn't given me up, me up No more clarity, only confusion Every focused thought, just an illusion If I could see you now, if you would listen Every fault would fade into the distance Run if you like All the mistakes that you left behind Hold me down You can't deny and I can't deny Open your eyes I'll look away and you come around To build your words High enough to carry you over And I never would've given you up Never would've given you up, you up If you only hadn't given me up Only hadn't given me up, me up And I never would've given you up Never would've given you up, you up If you only hadn't given me up Only hadn't given me up, me up You are If I only hadn't given you up If you only hadn't given me up And you are If I only hadn't given you up Losing my breath and leaving the rest Run if you like All the mistakes that you left behind Hold me down You can't deny and I can't deny Open your eyes I'll look away and you come around To build your words High enough to carry you over And I never would've given you up Never would've given you up, you up If you only hadn't given me up Only hadn't given me up, me up And I never would've given you up Never would've given you up, you up If you only hadn't given me up Only hadn't given me up, me up And I never would've given you up Never would've given you up, you up If you only hadn't given me up Only hadn't given me up, me up And I never would've given you up Never would've given you up, you up If you only hadn't given me up Only hadn't given me up
