Carry Me

Lyrics: Bob Weir
Music: Bob Wer

Recorded by Bob Weir with Bobby & The Midnites, but seemingly never played live

I could get by
Not much, have to try
Just watch the sky roll by
Never really needing you
But in me there's a fire
And it burns cold and blue, cold and blue
So cold and blue

Allow me to explain
Girl before you came
I took love for a game
And it took me in turn
One step closer to the fire
And it really, really burns, really burns
Really burns

Perhaps I should explain what I've been missing all my days
Someone to dim this flame, to bring me love that stays
For we know tomorrow might just be a brand new day

Come on let your love carry me
Carry me away
Away
Carry me away
Let your love carry me
Carry me away

Perhaps if never I
Had looked into your eyes
I'd not have realized
How much I needed you
Still in me there's a fire
And it burns so cold and blue, cold and blue
So cold and blue

Again I'd try to say what I have longed for all my days
Ah but girl sometimes, some things I just can't say
For all we know tomorrow might just be a brand new day

Come on let your love carry me
Carry me away
Away
Carry me away
Let your love carry me
Carry me, carry me away

Come on let your love carry me, carry me away
Let your love carry me, carry me away
Carry me away, carry me away
Let your love carry me, carry me away
Carry me away, carry me away
Let your love carry me, carry me away
