Lyrics Jimmy Eat World

Jimmy Eat World

Carry You

When I know I'm all alone

Say your name slowly

And I know that I'm alone

But I'll carry you

Does it feel good like a memory

When you try some history

It's a dream to come around

The rule doesn't bend,

Because the taste doesn't taste the same again

It's easy feeling righteous when removed

All you'll get as what you wanna hear

It hurts because it should

How else am I to make it clear?

I could never be the one that you want, don't ask.

Well, here's to living in the moment

'Cause it passed.

Maybe a lie is what I need sometimes

You told the most and best of anyone

You said to "keep me in your pocket"

So I carried you

You better choose your words carefully

Because I'm not your anything

Gonna stay here in my place

And you'll stay in yours because

You're only good as what you're good for

I pace around the room to spend the time

Waiting while the burning pictures fade

One thing to make your mind

And another to say its name

I could never be the one that you want, don't ask.

Well, here's to living in the moment

'Cause it passed, it passed.

I'm still carrying a little hope that

Maybe things could get different now

Is that so wrong, is that so wrong, is that so wrong?

Would I see you tonight

At a place we go?

Could going through the motions, lead to real emotion?

I wanna make things right

Before time runs out.

It was like you said, the taste don't taste like it should

Roll down the windows

Let the cold air come in

Slap my face just feel you somehow again, again....

I could never be the one that you want, don't ask.

Well, here's to living in the moment

'Cause it passed.

I could never be the one that you want, don't ask.

Yeah, here's to living in the moment

'Cause it passed.

'Cause it passed, it passed, it passed.
