I laid the blanket there on the shoreline

And saw the water shine with the moon

What kind of fool would fail to notice

The best thing shining was you



Oh, I laughed kinda nervous

I felt you move closer

And felt the world unwind

Once was a stranger, not quite a lover

But steadily crossing the line



Carry me far away

Don't hold back; I won't break

Leave the ghosts behind

All I know, wrong or right

Just the thought of this night

Will get me every time

Every time



Well, the voice in my head said

"What are you doing?"

I thought not listening to you

You see I'm taking a chance

I'm thinking about flying over the blue



And it's crazy to be this out of practice

And have it all come so naturally

Don't you love knocking logic right off its axis

And watch it float far out to sea



Carry me far away

Don't hold back; I won't break

Leave the ghosts behind

All I know, wrong or right

Just the thought of this night

Will get me every time

Every time

Every time

Every time

Every time



So now here I am reading my fortune

In the winding lines of your hand

Oh, and I see a lost unwanted orphan

Head right for the promised land



Carry me far away

I won't

I won't break

Oh

Carry me far away

Don't hold back; I won't break

Leave the ghosts behind

All I know, wrong or right

Just the thought of this night

Will get me every time

Will get me every time

Every time
