[Intro] Give me a second I, I need to get my story straight My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the Empire State My lover she's waiting for me just across the bar My seat's been taken by some sunglasses asking 'bout a scar And I know I gave it to you months ago I know you're trying to forget But between the drinks and subtle things, the holes in my apologies You know I'm trying hard to take it back So if by the time the bar closes And you feel like falling down I'll carry you home
[Hook x2] Tonight We are young So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter Than the sun
[Verse 1] Now I know that I'm not All that you got I guess that I, I just thought Maybe we could find new ways to fall apart But our friends are back So let's raise a cup Cause I found someone to carry me home
[Hook x2]
[Bridge: Janelle Monáe] Carry me home tonight Just carry me home tonight Carry me home tonight Just carry me home tonight
[Verse 2] The moon is on my side I have no reason to run So will someone come and carry me home tonight The angels never arrived But I can hear the choir So will someone come and carry me home
[Hook x2]
[Outro] So if by the time the bar closes And you feel like falling down I'll carry you home tonight
