Verse
Anywhere you go, anyone you meet
)
Remember that your eyes can be your enemies
I said hell is so close, and heavens out of reach
Pre-chorus
But I ain't giving up quite yet,
I've got too much to lose,
Chorus
Hold me down, sweet and low little girl
Hold me down, sweet and low and I will carry you home,
Hold me down, sweet and low little girl
Hold me down
and i'll carry you home.

Verse
The rain is gonna fall, the sun is gonna shine
The wind is gonna blow, the water's gonna rise
She said, when that day comes look into my eyes
Pre-chorus
But no ones giving up quite yet;
we've got too much to lose...
Chorus
Hold me down, sweet and low little girl
Hold me down, sweet and low and I will carry you home,
Hold me down, sweet and low little girl
Hold me down
and i'll carry you....
Bridge
all the way
When you say you're fine
But you're still young and out of line,
When all I need's to turn around
To make it last, to make it count,
I ain't gonna make the same mistakes
That put my mama in her grave
I don't wanna be alone.
Chorus
Hold me down, sweet and low little girl
Hold me down, sweet and low and I will carry you home,
Hold me down, sweet and low little girl
Hold me down
and i'll carry you home.
