I carry you with me,
A ghost inside
And in these shattered arms,
You're still alive.
I carry you with me,
A holy shrine
And dogs and angels follow
Right behind.
And could I be walking higher,
Could I be right beside her ?.
The bones they buried,
Will feed the trees
But every word you ever spoke,
Is still in me.
And couldI be walking higher,
Could I be right beside her ?.
And I will feel for you in the music,
And I will send that river home.
And I will cry for you sometimes,
When the night is down.
And I raise my head up to the mountains,
Talk to the birds and I fly,
'Cause the spirit lives on,
When the body dies.
And could I be walking higher,
Could I be right beside her?
Could I be walking higher,
Could I be right beside her?you never had a chance
did you baby
so good-looking, so insecure
and now you say
you can't remember
when the lines you drew began to blur
yeah, when all of this is over
should i lose you in the smoke
i want you to know
you were the one
and, may my love travel
with you everywhere
baby, may my love travel
with you always
maggie's still trying
to rope a tornado
joe's in the back yard trying to
keep things simple
and the lonely dj's
diggin' a ditch
trying to keep the flames
from the temple
oh, and if perhaps i lose you
in the smoke down the road
i want you to know
you were the one
and, may my love travel
with you everywhere
yeah, may my love travel
with you always
how about a cheer for all those bad girls
and all the boys
that play that rock and roll
they love it
like you love jesus
it does the same thing
to their souls
and when all of this is over
should i lose you in the smoke
i want you to know
you were the one
and, may my love travel
with you everywhere
yeah, may my love travel
with you always
