I broke down on new years day.
I mixed my drinks and i lost my way.
I walked past the houses of every friend i'd ever known
And i set off on my own.
If only i had known
That you'd been waiting in the street for me all day.
And they carried you away.
They carried you away.

Now everything gets older the further that i go
And i hope that someone is praying for me out there at home.
And i never saw you waving.
At least that's what i'll say
When they carry me away.
When they carry me away.
