Lyrics

Last night I drifted down to the docks
The water, glittering and black
The snow fell lightly and disappeared
I felt the old ropes grow slack

Thought I'd dissolve when the beacon revolved
I just get carried, so carried
Carried away

Once I had a ship, yes, I had a map
I had the wind like a tree has sap

I sank into these banks of clay
I just get carried, so carried
Carried

Those rooms were freezing and always dark
Where we were never mattered
Your head was golden, there was lightning in your arms
And then the glass shattered

It was noon at midnight, the day that never ends
The lamp, it whispers and makes amends

Everything was more than I took it for
I just get carried, so carried
Carried away

Writer(s): Tom Verlaine
