Carried Away

Aya, aya, ayo…carried away, oh no

You told me you wanted this
We sealed it with rings and a kiss
Our hearts, damn our hearts, are destined for this
Love will swing and love will miss

I wanted to kiss your lips
Your lips, they went away
My heart, damn my heart, was here to stay
Until your head went astray

We built our love, yeah we did
We built our home, yeah we did
We built our life, yeah we did
We got married away

You took our love, yeah you did
You took our home, yeah you did
You took our life, yeah you did
You got carried away

I still want to kiss your lips
Your lips, they’ve gone away
My heart, damn my heart, is here to stay
This love, damn this love, will not decay

We build our love, yeah we do
We build our home, yeah we do
We build our life, yeah we do
‘Til we’re carried away …carried away, away…carried away, ah-oh no

We built our love, yeah we did
We built our home, yeah we did
We built our life, yeah we did
You got buried today

I still want to kiss your lips
Your lips, they’ve gone away
My heart, damn my heart, is here to stay
This love, damn this love, will not decay
