CARRIE

Carrie is a girl i met
at a loading zone
scarf around her neck
gypsy boots over her tattooed ankle
she was raised by her grandparents
grew up in the mountains
bathed in the river and basked in the sunlight
she smiled with grace
and made any man proud to lay her down

Carrie you always had a way
to get me carried away
forget life you put my mind in a way to carry on
you carry on
someday i'll carry you away and make you mine

Carrie held reality in her heart
when she spoke she had soul
she's a natural when it came to pleasure
her gentle hands always told me
she'd take me easy when things got too hard
her body told me the truth
when she undid her dress

Carrie never go away
stay till the stars fall down
and your love is the best
as our souls take a leave of rest

Orlando Florida August 1996
