Carry Me

When I was a young man I found an old dream,

Was as battered and worn a one as you have ever seen.

But I made it some new wings and painted the nose,

And I wished so hard up in the air I rose, singingCarry me, carry me

Carry me above the world

Carry me, carry me, carry me.And I once loved a girl

She was younger than me

Her parents kept her locked up in their life

And she was crying at night,

And she was wishing she could be free.Course mostly I remember her laughing

Standing there watching us play.

For a while there, the music would take her away

And she'd be singingCarry me, carry me

Carry me above the world

Carry me, carry me

Carry me above the world.And then there was my mother:

She was lying in white sheets there and she was waiting to die.

She said, "If you'd just reach underneath this bed

And untie these weights,

I could surely fly.She's still smiling but she's tired,

She'd like to hear that last bell ring.

You know if she could she would

Stand up, and she could sing, singingCarry me, carry me

Carry me above the world

Carry me, carry me.
