"Carry You Home" lyrics

"Carry You Home"

The ice in the drink of my overturned glass
Slid across the table in slow motion
On the edge, one cube paused like it was lost in thought
Before it gave into the urge and kept on going

Maybe it's the kind of motivation that we needed
To turn this flirting, nervous conversation into leaving
So, what do you say?
Why don't we play it out
Take off the brakes for now?

Tomorrow morning, when we're both not wasted
I'm gonna look you in the eyes and say we'll make it if we take it slow
But tonight, I wanna carry you home

My hand holding yours in the backseat of the car
Trying to keep our whispers secret from the driver
Smiling out our windows as we both watch the city pass
I swear the streetlights never burned brighter

Maybe this is just the kind of danger that's been missing
Maybe we won't make it past the counter in the kitchen
So, what do you say?
Why don't we play it out
Take off the brakes for now?

Oh, tomorrow morning, when we're both not wasted
I'm gonna look you in the eyes and say we'll make it if we take it slow
Oh, wanna wake up with your head on my shoulder
Never happier to be hungover, I know we should take it slow
But tonight, I wanna carry you home
I wanna carry you home, baby

I would be lying if I said I didn't think you were perfect
Even if this doesn't work out, I still think it's worth it
It's worth it

Tomorrow morning, when we're both not wasted
I'm gonna look you in the eyes and say we'll make it if we take it slow
Oh, wanna wake up with your head on my shoulder
Never happier to be hungover, I know we should take it slow
But tonight, I wanna carry you home

I would be lying if I said I didn't think you were perfect
