Lyrics: Jimmy Eat World. Carry You.

:
When I know I'm all alone
I 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
But who doesn't then,
Because the taste
doesn't taste the same again

It's easy feeling righteous
when you're new
All you'll get is
what you wanna hear
It hurts because it should
How else am I to make it clear?

I could never be the one t
hat you want, don't ask.
Well, here's to living in the moment
'Cause it passed.

Maybe your life
is what I need sometimes
You took 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
Your only good is what you're good for

I pace around the room to spend the time
Waiting while the burning pictures fade
Want a thing to make you mine
And another to say it's fine

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'd go?
(going through the motions,
leads to real emotions)
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, yeah
Slap my face just to feel,
to 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
