Carry You Home

The ice in the drink of my overturned glass

Slid across the table in slow motion

On the edge, one cube paused like it was lost in thought

Before it gave into the urge and kept on going

Maybe it's the kind of motivation that we needed

To turn this flirting, nervous conversation into leaving

So, what do you say?

Why don't we play it out

Take off the brakes for now?

Tomorrow morning, when we're both not wasted

I'm gonna look you in the eyes and say we'll make it if we take it slow

But tonight, I wanna carry you home

My hand holding yours in the backseat of the car

Trying to keep our whispers secret from the driver

Smiling out our windows as we both watch the city pass

I swear the streetlights never burned brighter

Maybe this is just the kind of danger that's been missing

Maybe we won't make it past the counter in the kitchen

So, what do you say?

Why don't we play it out

Take off the brakes for now?

Oh, tomorrow morning, when we're both not wasted

I'm gonna look you in the eyes and say we'll make it if we take it slow

Oh, wanna wake up with your head on my shoulder

Never happier to be hungover, I know we should take it slow

But tonight, I wanna carry you home

I wanna carry you home, baby

I would be lying if I said I didn't think you were perfect

Even if this doesn't work out, I still think it's worth it

It's worth it

Tomorrow morning, when we're both not wasted

I'm gonna look you in the eyes and say we'll make it if we take it slow

Oh, wanna wake up with your head on my shoulder

Never happier to be hungover, I know we should take it slow

But tonight, I wanna carry you home

I would be lying if I said I didn't think you were perfect
