Carry You Home

Trouble is her only friend and he’s back again
Makes her body older than it really is
And she says it’s high time she went away
No-one’s got much to say in this town
Trouble is the only way is down
Down, down

As strong as you were,
Tender you go
I’m watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and I’ll carry you home
I’ll carry you home
If she had wings she would fly away
And another day, God will give her some
Trouble is the only way is down
Down, down

As strong as you were,
Tender you go
I’m watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and I’ll carry you home
I’ll carry you home

And they’re all going crazy in New York City tonight
Cause someone’s little girl’s taken from the world tonight
Under the Stars and Stripes
As strong as you were,
Tender you go
I’m watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and I’ll carry you home
As strong as you were,
Tender you go
I’m watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and I’ll carry you home
I’ll carry you home
Trouble is her only friend and he’s back again
Makes her body older than it really is
And she says it’s high time she went away
No-one’s got much to say in this town
Trouble is the only way is down
Down, down

As strong as you were,
Tender you go
I’m watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and I’ll carry you home
I’ll carry you home
If she had wings she would fly away
And another day, God will give her some
Trouble is the only way is down
Down, down

As strong as you were,
Tender you go
I’m watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and I’ll carry you home
I’ll carry you home

And they’re all going crazy in New York City tonight
Cause someone’s little girl’s taken from the world tonight
Under the Stars and Stripes
As strong as you were,
Tender you go
I’m watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and I’ll carry you home
As strong as you were,
Tender you go
I’m watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means and I’ll carry you home
I’ll carry you home
