Lyrics Polly Paulusma

Polly Paulusma

Carry Me Home

Spin me round, I'm blindfold

Once upon a time somebody told me

I was going to be someone

I was supposed to be someone

Now one half likes to carry, wants to share

I want to hold the candle

Load the gun for you

Only load the gun for you

But the other half

Yearns to be living that hard life

When I'm making, breaking rules

That are all on my own, on my own, so

Blow winds and come rainclouds

Gather over my head

Blow winds and come rainclouds

Gather over my head

Cracks keep gaping down me

Opening great halls of tug of war

Where no one is the champion

No one is the champion

So slice me down the middle

Keep the half that wants to be

Your eyes, your arms to fight for you

Oh baby, so hard for you

'Cause this other half

Needs to be living that hard life

Can you let me squeeze the trigger

Can you give me the gun, give me the gun, oh

Blow winds and come you rainclouds

Gather over my head, won't you come in

Blow winds and come you rainclouds

Gather over my head

If I win, are you man enough to claim me

If I fail, will you carry me home, all the way home

Blow winds and come you rainclouds

Gather over my head

Blow winds and come rainclouds

Gather over my head

Over my head, over my head
