There you are, shiny as a morning star It's a figure of speech, but you're still out of reach You never told me loving you could be so wrong and right And it's gonna be a lonely night I turn to you, you turn away, you're looking at someone else And here am I, loving you more and more We've got an open door, my love, oh let it be just a state of mind And suddenly you appear Chorus: I'm carried away, I'm carried away, to be carried away, I'm carried away To be carried away, I'm carried away C'est la vie, so you wanna play another part Can you say goodbye, can you live a lie She'll never give you what I gave you was my breaking heart Better than I ever knew And if you can live without my love, you're really gonna be alone And here am I, walking against the crowd Calling your name out loud, my love, oh let it be just a state of mind And suddenly you appear (chorus) Carried away - baby there ain't no final word, I'll be yours again I got a world of tenderness, yours until the end (chorus) To be carried away, I'm carried away, to be carried away, carried away I'm carried away, to be carried away, I'm carried away, to be carried away I'm carried away, to be carried away, I'm carried away, to be carried away...
