Carry Me On Home
It was spring when I met you
now it's spring once again
another year older
another year friends
Afraid when I met you
now I fear when you're gone
because baby, I know that
our love has grown strong
Chorus:
You are the best thing in my life right now
You pick me up when things are bleak and down
You made my life look all shiny and new
Baby please carry me on home with you
Leaves start a-fallin'
I walk off to school
You send me flowers
and kisses too
Our friends started doubting
our love would last this long
but we laugh 'cause we know that
our hearts still beat on
Chorus:
You are the best thing in my life right now
You pick me up when things are bleak and down
You made my life look all shiny and new
Baby please carry me on home with you
Instrumental

Chorus:
You are the best thing in my life right now
You pick me up when things are bleak and down
You make me smile and laugh when I'm feeling blue
So baby carry me on home with you
(Slow down / instrument)
3 a.m. baby
you're drunk on the phone
Both crying to each other
feel so alone
Six hours later
you meet by my side
Baby just know that
you'll always be mine.

Gotta love early morning shower inspiration. For some reason, getting wet makes me feel creative XD ... not like that. Anyway. Yeah, I've been wanting to write my boyfriend a song since we literally got together, but I couldn't find the right words nor tune to get it to be perfect. The song itself sounds a little folksy, maybe even (dare I say it) country-ish, but he would like that. I think I want primarily guitar to go with this. The beat should be a slightly quicker tempo until the very end. May change that ending verse, but for just an hour of thinking / coming up with this, I think it's pretty much what I've wanted to say to Travis.
