Carried Away

(barry gibb/albhy galuten)
There you are
Shiny as a morning star
Its a figure of speech
But youre still out of reach
You never told me loving you could be so wrong and right
And its gonna be a lonely night
I turn to you
You turn away
Youre looking at someone else
And here am i
Loving you more and more
Weve got an open door, my love
Oh let it be just a state of mind
And suddenly you appear
Im carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away
Im carried away
Cest la vie
So you wanna play another part
Can you say goodbye
Can you live a lie
Shell never give you what I gave you was my breaking heart
Better than I ever knew
And if you can live without my love
Youre really gonna be alone
And here am i
Walking against the crowd
Calling your name out loud, my love
Oh let it be just a state of mind
And suddenly you appear
Im carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away
Im carried away
Carried away
Baby there aint no final word
Ill be yours again
I got a world of tenderness
Yours until the end
Im carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away
Im carried away
Im carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away
Im carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away
Im carried away
To be carried away

Byron

Epitaph On John Adams, Of Southwell - A Carrier, Who Died Of Drunkenness

JOHN ADAMS lies here, of the parish of Southwell,
A Carrier who carried his can to his mouth well:
He carried so much, and he carried so fast,
He could carry no more‑so was carried at last;
For, the liquor he drank, being too much for one,
He could not carry off,--so he's now carri-on.

Carried Away

Once again
I lie awake at night in storyland
I'm slippin' away
Understand
Just to escape I run to hope
Still light years away

I'm sinking in the sand
I'm gonna take your hand
you gotta understand

I'm carried away
Your eternal flame
Don't blow it out
You gotta leave it on
I'm carried away
I'm finding my faith
Goes on and on
I'm really getting a carried away

Never fall
Into the world of someone calling out
A mirror inside
Is telling' me you're just a breath away from doubt
And you wake in the night

I'm sinking in the sand
I'm gonna take your hand
You gotta understand

I'm carried away
Your eternal flame
Don't blow it out
You gotta leave it on
I'm carried away
I'm finding my faith
Goes on and on
I'm really getting carried away

'Cos I can go on this time
In my way
'Cos I believe all my prayers

I'm carried away carried away

Your eternal flame
Don't blow it out
You gotta leave it on
I'm carried away
I'm finding my faith
Goes on and on
I'm really getting carried away

Carry Me Away

Patrick simmons / jeffrey baxter / michael mcdonald
There was a place in east st. louis
It was in nineteen fifty nine
When they played they filled the streets with music
That lonely blue note music
That takes your cares away, far away
They packed the place when the band was playin
To get some joy from a smoke filled room
Through that door you could see the bodies swayin
The blue note band was playin
Some lonely blue note song, all night long
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away
No place Id rather stay
If you should ever make it to st. louis
On some hot and lonely night
If you listen you can hear that blue note music
They fill the streets with music
It carries you away, far away
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away
No place Id rather stay

Viewpoint

some people said I was crazy

And some people said I was lazy

And some people said I was on course

For a fully fledged 'divorce'

Until I said 'listen, I'm not married'

Some people said I was always carried

By other people with as much emotional baggage

Some people said I looked like a cabbage

And some people said I was as BIG AS A HOUSE

Some people said I was as quiet as a mouse

And some people said I should get a life

some people said I was a pain in the neck

And some people said they felt the pain

And some people who salvaged the wreck

Abandoned the deck

Broadcasting the ship would sink

And some people of the same clan

Disconnected their phone

Leaving me to ponder on my own

About all that they had said

And all their words fell silent

And suddenly dead.....

After so much defintion

I chose life instead

Carried Away

I dont take my whiskey to extremes
Dont believe in chasin crazy dreams
My feet are planted firmly on the ground
But darlin when you come around
[chorus]
I get carried away by the look by the light in your eyes
Before I even realize the ride Im on
Baby Im long gone
I get carried away nothin matters but bein with you
Like a feather flyin high up in the sky on a windy day
I get carried away
It might seem like an ordinary night
Same ol stars same ol moon up high
But when I see you standin at your door
Nothins ordinary anymore
[chorus]
[chorus]
Carried away

Today, many people take for granted the notion that people whose lives are going to be very heavily affected by public policies should have a say in how they are formulated and carried out.

Moonlight Shadow

The last that ever she saw him
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on worried and warning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
Lost in a riddle last saturday night
Far away on the other side.
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through

The trees that whisper in the evening
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun
Far away on the other side.
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven one day

Four AM in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Stars move slowly in the silvery night
Far away on the other side
"Will you come to talk to me this night?"
But she couldn't find how to push through

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven one day

Far away on the other side.

Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
The night was heavy but the air was alive
But she couldn't find how to push through

Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Far away on the other side.

I've carried a gun for 10 years. I've carried them in the locker room, and nobody really knows about it. I know how to handle myself, and I stow it away where nobody really knows about it.

Monstrosities That I Observe Among Christians

I. It’s a monstrosity that some people believe

It’s a monstrosity that some people believe
that a deadly illness,
poverty, loss of a job and income
and every disaster that happens daily to people

results from their sin,
where people live outside the hand of God
and when I think about a one-year-old child
that is dying of cancer,

see how people that were wealthy
now is on the street,
it reminds me about Job,
while there is still trust and hope
in the biggest darkness.


II. That the eating of meat is sin

Some people believe
that according to the Bible it is sin
to eat meat
and so easily they forget

that the Bible says clearly
that some meat foods are clean,
that Jesus himself multiplied fishes and bread,
that shepherds caring for their flocks of sheep

were informed about the coming
of the Son of God
and still I wonder
why the shepherds had sheep?


III. That atheists originate from the teaching of some churches

That the doctrines of other churches
compel people to become atheists
as there teachings are free from all truth
and only true Christians

in that particular Christian faith are serving God,
as if God is not reaching out His hands
to all Christians
and every has do not have dedicated people

and then they hit on their breasts like the Pharisees
and say that they are elect children
of Abraham,
while they are really a brood of vipers

and the atheists that I know,
are people that struggle
to find God in science,
as if a person can bind Him
to figures and symbols.


IV. That the will of God is carried out

That the will of God
is carried out in every decision
that a church organization
or its representatives take

and when a minister requests you to do something
it comes from the mouth of God Himself
and if you are not able to or want to do it,
you are rebelling against God.

I have heard ministers
using prayers to force
their will upon people,
as if they are twisting
the arm of God
to turn things to their way.

As You Said

By jack bruce and pete brown
Lets go down to where its clean
To see the time that might have been.
The tides have carried off the beach.
As you said,
The sun is out of reach.
Lets go back to where its clean
To see what year it might have been.
The roads have carried off the smiles.
As you said,
To judge them at the trials.
Lets go back to now thats bad
To see the time we might have had.
The rails have carried off the trains.
As you said,
Ill never come again, again, again, again.

Floating Bridge

(by sleepy john estes)
Well I never will forget that floating bridge.
Lord I never will forget that floating bridge.
Lord I never will forget that floating bridge.
They tell me five minutes time underwater I was hid.
I was going down and I throwed up my hands.
As I was going down I throwed up my hands.
As I was going down I throwed up my hands,
Saying, please lord, take me on dry land.
Well they carried me in the house and they laid me cross the bed.
Well they carried me in the house, they laid me cross the bed.
Well they carried me in the house, they laid me cross the bed.
I couldnt hear nothing but muddy water running round my head.
Oh my mother often told me, quit playing a bum.
My mother always told me, quit playing a bum.
Lord, my mother always told me, son, quit playing a bum.
Go out somewhere and make a crumb.
All the people on the bridge was screaming and crying.
Well all the people on the bridge was screaming and crying.
All the people on the bridge stood screaming and crying,
Saying, lord have mercy, whers we gwine?

Our Way At Giving Poetry A Contemporary Name

poetry is just a flow of the river, taking away what is floating there
everything, from the heart to the vastness of the sea,
you get carried, not just by the substance of the river in-itself,
but also of the sound of the flow so uniquely yours, unequaled even
by the perfection of those who were here ahead of you,

you get carried away, you become the river itself, the leaf, the sand,
the bubble, the fish, the twigs, the paper boat, the shadow of the clouds
the mirror of the sky, clear so clear, murky and so murky, you flow

to be one with the sea, the horizon, you become more and less,
you get carried away both with the bulk and the bulge and the budge,
you get carried away, you lose yourself with the wind, you hear all the
sounds, you talk and walk, and then you feel the happiness of the earth
and the sky and the whole of the galaxy.

There exists no borders of time. It is all space. Bliss.
There are no lessons, not even visions, there is only the universal lull.

Springtime Breeze

An errant breeze
Carried the sweet scent
Of Honey locust blossoms

My attention caught
I raised my head
To inhale deeply

And I thought
“how many people
Walk in beauty? ”

And never even
Raise their head
To seize

The Spring…
the blossoms…
The scent,

Of honey locusts blossoms
Carried on
An errant Springtime breeze
