People love you like a diamond in their hands
They don't know that diamond like I do
Put you up in the bluebird sky until they lose sight of you
People love you like a diamond in their hands

I always wanted to chase you down
Like many I fell in love with you
And when you gave your heart back to me
I didn't know what to do
I always wanted to chase you down

Carry me, carry me back to you heart tonight
Carry me, carry me through this cold midnight

Many times a young man has to wander around
Until he breaks himself in two
Not all, but many, many of us never learn what to do
Many times a young man has to wander around

Well I had my reasons for leaving
And now I know that I was wrong
It was selfish to think you'd be better off
Just cause I wanted to be further along
I had my reasons for leaving you

Carry me, carry me back to you heart tonight
Carry me, carry me through this cold midnight
Bury me, underneath your starlight

Here comes that old devil midnight
And I have not slept in days
And there'll be no rest on this midnight
If the highway has it's way
Here comes that old devil midnight

Carry me, carry me back to you heart tonight
Carry me, carry me through this cold midnight
Carry me, carry me back to your side tonight
Carry me, carry me through one more cold midnight
Bury me underneath your starlight
Bury me underneath your starlight
