That's Life (Carry Me Home)

Lyrics for That's Life (Carry Me Home)

I had a dream last night I watched you all survive I woke up this morning prepared to die So darlings, should I die Carry me, carry me home Darlin', carry me home Come one, come all 'cause this is it Swan song for the malcontent A dark horse that rides with the sunset We're defiant darlings, we ain't giving in Photographed; immortalise the moment Should we die, put it on the caskets 21 guns fired into streetlights Wear colour when we dance on the gravesite I'm stained like you, should we wash it out? Dirt under nails; gimme character Last chance, last call for a last round (Last chance, last call) Funeral parade, Scotch and French Champagne Sing through the night 'til our hearts give out Gimme one more night to feel alive Carry me, carry me, carry me home Dance through the graves, carry me home Death has such a pretty face Give me a kiss, oh, c'est la vie Carry me, carry me, carry me home Dance through the graves, carry me home Darling, you're such a pretty face Give me a kiss, blow me away Oh, I've never been much of a partisan Always been more partial to a harlequin A forlorn life full of tragedy, but I see the funny side, haha So should we part our tragic lives Here's cheers to you, and cheers to me Oh, one more song, of revelry Sing with me now; "da, da, da-da" Carry me, carry me, carry me home Dance through the graves, carry me home Death has such a pretty face Give me a kiss, oh, c'est la vie Carry me, carry me, carry me home Dance through the graves, carry me home Darling, you're such a pretty face Give me a kiss, blow me away (Spin this room) Pretty eyes, and mouth of gods Wholly saved, and nothing lost Do me this dance, if it's our last Don't be afraid, come take my hands My love is felt but never said So hear my words, and raise a glass From the front, to the grave, does the wind blow Hear the call, from the throats of the gallows From the hearts of the lovers and the cutthroats Won't kneel, won't die, 'cause we've got hope With hope we sing; "carry me home" "Carry me, carry me, carry me home" No one left behind, oh carry me Carry me Carry me, carry me, carry me home Dance through the graves, carry me home Death has such a pretty face Give me a kiss, oh, c'est la vie Carry me, carry me, carry me home Dance through the graves, carry me home Darling, you're such a pretty face Give me a kiss, blow me away (Carry me, carry me, carry me home Dance through the graves, carry me home) And if I die Are you prepared to die? From the front to the back From the start to the end, we ask Are you prepared to die? (Da-da-dada) I had a dream last night
