carry you with me

i've always thought of this song in terms of my dad singing it to my brother, mom, and me as he left this world for another. if i were able to cry, this one would do it for me every time. thanks, tyler.

carry you with me
children keep on dreamin
when you wake i will be gone
i will vanish with the darkness
i will leave before the dawn
and i am going
to a city by the sea
but don't you worry
because i carry you with me
because i carry you with me

darlin you're so pretty
like an angel in your sleep
i wish that i could stay with you
no i don't wanna leave
but there are some places
that i really need to be
well don't you worry now
because i carry you with me
because i carry you with me

i carry you with me
like like a haunting melody
i carry you with me
i hear you cry
i hear your laugh
i see your smile
i taste your kiss
i carry you with me

and maybe someday
forever i will stay
lord knows that's what i'm dreamin of
and i'll try and find a way
but for now the wind keeps blowin
it carries me across the sea
but don't you worry now
because i carry you with me
cause i carry you with me
