When I was 17 I fell in love with every boy that I would meet
When I was 21 I was his first kiss thought we'd never be done
When I was 25, well you were 19 and it just didn't work like
But when we broke apart it was like standing on a cliff in the pitch dark
I got carried away
When I was in NYC I met a man caught up in monogamy
We danced the thinnest line, a dozen near misses every single night
But with the boundaries crossed it's like I found something I didn't know was lost
The right place, the wrong time, I couldn't be his and he wouldn't be mine
I got carried away
Red, Red, Red, we got lost in our heads
But you know we can't fight death
Now several years have gone, who knew a could freeze could last so long?
He said "something's broken," the short sharp slap when the truth is spoken
But can the heart be saved or do I have to climb out of my own grave?
Oh will I ever know, would you hold me or just let go?
I wanna get carried away
