Texty: John Hiatt. The Open Road. Carry You Back Home.

Well, I don't need a reason that
I find your love so pleasin'
I know you can carry me back home

Been out in the wilderness
I could use a little tenderness
Baby, I know you can carry me back home

And I give good as I get
This is a night you will never forget

So I'm not tellin', I'm askin' you
Abandon all old points of view
Honey, let me carry you back home

I've been sailin' a ship of fools
Past steel eyed buildings, glass swimming pools
Baby, you can carry me back home

They all said the earth was flat
But I think I can live with that
Baby, you can carry me back home

Trust, that's a word that we know
But how much does it take to let go?

I would give my life for you
Do anything to pull you through
Honey, let me carry you back home

And your love lingers on in my mind
Well after the fact of any moment sublime

So I'm not tellin', I'm askin' you
Abandon all old points of view
And honey, let me carry you back home

So I'm not tellin', I'm askin' you
Abandon all known points of view
Honey, let me carry you back home
