[Verse 1]
When all the lights are out
And it's hard to sleep
Then I start to dream
Of a place very far from here
Where there's more to life
Than tryin' to make ends meet
[Chorus]
And like a ship out on the ocean
Sometimes I just wish we could be
Carried away
[Verse 2]
Now as the day wears down
This old wicked town
Starts to lose its glow
Somehow, all the pretty lights
Make it look tonight
Much better than it is
[Chorus]
And like a ship out on the ocean
Sometimes I just wish we could be
Carried away
Carried
(Carried away)
(Carried away)
[Verse 1]
When all the lights are out
And it's hard to sleep
Then I start to dream
Of a place very far from here
Where there's more to life
Than tryin' to make ends meet
[Chorus]
And like a ship out on the ocean
(Like waves over the sea)
Like the heat when the door is wide open
Sometimes I just wish we could be
Carried away
Carried away
[Outro]
Sometimes I wish we could be
(That we could be carried away)
Like the heat when the door is wide open
Carried away
(I just wish, if only we could be carried away)
(Carried away)
When all the lights are out
And it's hard to sleep
Then I start to dream
Of a place very far from here
Where there's more to life
Than tryin' to make ends meet
[Chorus]
And like a ship out on the ocean
Sometimes I just wish we could be
Carried away
[Verse 2]
Now as the day wears down
This old wicked town
Starts to lose its glow
Somehow, all the pretty lights
Make it look tonight
Much better than it is
[Chorus]
And like a ship out on the ocean
Sometimes I just wish we could be
Carried away
Carried
(Carried away)
(Carried away)
[Verse 1]
When all the lights are out
And it's hard to sleep
Then I start to dream
Of a place very far from here
Where there's more to life
Than tryin' to make ends meet
[Chorus]
And like a ship out on the ocean
(Like waves over the sea)
Like the heat when the door is wide open
Sometimes I just wish we could be
Carried away
Carried away
[Outro]
Sometimes I wish we could be
(That we could be carried away)
Like the heat when the door is wide open
Carried away
(I just wish, if only we could be carried away)
(Carried away)
