Baby,
You're drunk and acting tough.
I know you're sad
You're not the only one
Who feels like that now.

And maybe anger is your only choice,
But maybe heart and fist and human voice
Might be the better way.
Be the way...

Cause we,
We will still need a song
To carry our love away.
To carry it away,
We will still need a song
To carry our hearts away,
To carry them away.

Don't let another tear be in your eyes.
We can die in peace knowing we tried
To change our own ways.
The poets let a generation down.
And modern music could be a healing sound,
It's the only way,
Only way...

Cause we,
We will still need a song
To carry our love away.
To carry it away,
We will still need a song
To dance on our wedding day
Carry it away.

We will still need a song.
(We will still need)
To carry us away
(carry us home)
To carry us away

And we,
We will still need a song
To carry our hearts away.
To carry them away,
We will still need a song
To dance on our wedding day,
To carry away
Yeah...
