Lyrics

CARRIE
CARRIE I JUST THOUGHT ID LET YOU KNOW
THAT THIS SONG IS ALL ABOUT YOU
IT'S ABOUT A GIRL ID LIKE TO KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE DOING ON THE WEEKEND
CARRIE YOUR INSPIRATION
GOLDEN HAIR AND GOLDEN BRACELET
HELPED ME TO WRITE THIS SONG ABOUT
YOUR EYES AND YOUR FACE IN MY DREAMS
CARRIE I JUST THOUGHT ID LET YOU KNOW
THAT A TRUE LOVE IS WHAT YOU'RE MISSING
AND I AM SURE YOU'LL WANT TO TALK IT OUT
AND ALL IT TAKES IS ME A LISTENING
CARRIE YOUR INSPIRATION
GOLDEN HAIR AND GOLDEN BRACELET
HELPED ME TO WRITE THIS SONG ABOUT
YOUR TRIP TO NEW YORK CITY
SAY GODDBYE TO YOUR PET PIGGY
DON'T YOU KNOW THAT IT AINT GROOVEY TO BE GROOVING
LOVES IS BUT A STRANGER BUT
WHO CARES ABOUT THAT STAGE OF YOUR LIFE
CARRIE WANTS MY ATTENTION
SHE PLAYS THE KEYTAR FOR ME
CARRIE SAYS SHE WANTS TO BE FREE
OH CARRIE WANTS TO BE FREE
OH THE HUMDRUM OF THE WORKING DAY
CARRIE I JUST THOUGHT THAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
IT MIGHT BE TIME TO CHANGE YOUR MIND
AND YOU CAN FEEL THAT FIRE'S EDGE TONIGHT
AND YOU CAN FEEL IT BURNING INSIDE YOU
CARRIE YOUR INSPIRATION
GOLDEN HAIR AND GOLDEN BRACELET
HELPED ME TO WRITE THIS SONG ABOUT
YOUR TRIPS TO NEW YORK CITY
SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR PET PIGGIES
DON'T YOU KNOW IT AINT GROOVEY TO BE GROOVIN
JUSTIFY YOUR NOT ON TIME YOU
STANDING BY THAT PIECE OF YOUR MIND
CARRIE'S GOT MY ATTENTION
SHE PLAYS THE KEYTAR FOR ME
AND CARRIE SAYS SHE WANTS TO BE FREE
OH CARRIE WANTS TO BE FREE
OH THE HUMDRUM OF THE WORKING DAY.

This is a good song. I like it a lot.

I like the feel; it's a cross between 60s pop (I could imaging the Hollies doing some close high harmonies) with a bit of Mika mixed in. I also liked the variation you introduced in the middle 8 section (the added percussion especially) and the voice on the telephone call added interest.

lovely song and very well done hope you do really well
