Carrie Lyrics

Carrie, we slept under the bee-bop moon

The sound of Laurel Canyon filled the air

And Carrie, I always thought you looked so cool

With your bloodshot eyes and braided sunset hair

Our heads were full of dreams

Now they've faded like your blue jeans

We were just two kids

Nobody could put us down

We took it to the wire

Doing it for kicks

Feeling like we owned the town

But we were playing round with fire

Carrie, when we were both seventeen

We drank like it was going out of style

And Carrie, your fingers stained with nicotine

I was burning for your smile

Our heads were full of dreams

Now they've faded like your blue jeans

We were just two kids

Nobody could put us down

We took it to the wire

Doing it for kicks

Feeling like we owned the town

But we were playing round with fire

We were just two kids

Nobody could put us down

We took it to the wire

Doing it for kicks

Feeling like we owned the town

But we were playing round with fire

Our heads were full of dreams

How they faded like your blue jeans
