Carried Away (From the “Lyle Lyle Crocodile” Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

We had nights of endless music

We were dizzy dancing 'til the dawn

We were free, singing sweet harmonies with the city

But maybe that was someone else's song

Back to Earth again

You knew where this was headed, and honestly, you're better off

Better here where you belong

You got caught up in the colors

You got wrapped up in the ride

You thought the feeling was forever

And the stars were on your side

It was lovely while it lasted

But it wasn't meant to stay

Still, you let yourself get carried away

I guess I let myself get carried away

We got carried away, carried away

Got carried away, carried away

So we got mixed up in the madness

But wasn't it a perfect mess we made?

Well, you live and you learn

You return to the safe and the simple

And behind our walls we fall back into place

Back to Earth again

You're through with pretending 'cause this is how the ending goes

Now you're here where you belong

We got caught up in the colors

We got wrapped up in the ride

We thought the feeling was forever

And the stars were on our side

It was lovely while it lasted

But it wasn't meant to stay

We just let ourselves get carried away

We got carried away, carried away

Got carried away, carried away

Carried away, lost in the fantasy (carried away), of all we were gonna be

Carried away, carried away

It was lovely while it lasted

It was never meant to stay

But we let ourselves get carried away

I guess I let myself get carried away
